TA21 DHC

I am now the proud owner( I hope ) of a TA21 DHC needing much restoration, so all help and advise will be much appreciated. I need a pair of rear springs, which look all but impossible to change, a decent steering wheel. The "running boards" are  almost non existent, does anybody have some, even poor ones, or loan of some to copy ?  These are of course only the first of the challenges. Any body living near enough to want to come and drink tea and take a look is most welcome.Peter 01452 760795   07768182684  Elton Farm GL14 1JU Posted by PeterR 20/04/2014 14:39:50

Peter,  Congratulations.  I can speak here from experience as an owner of a TA21. I recommend that you contact Chris. Prince for he has stocks many parts from the post war cars. His web address is: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.chrisprince.co.uk/">http://www.chrisprince.co.uk/</a><!-- m -->  You will find his contact e-mail address within the site.  I have found Chris to be very helpful and willing to dispense advise freely.  All the best.  Richard  (Melbourne) Posted by RichardWallach 21/04/2014 05:54:39

Peter,  I should have added to my post that you really need to get a copy of the AOC Technical Compendium for the TA-TC series as there is much useful in formation. Malcolm, the model secretary may have copies of  - 50th Anniversary Collection; it is a good read and also contains useful technical information.  Regards  Richard Posted by RichardWallach 24/04/2014 01:45:21
