MG TD TF 1500 - compatible spares

Hello,
Is there a list of compatible parts for our TDs that we can find in other Nuffield cars ?

Yes Laurent there is. It was compiled over 50 years ago by a guy who lives in Newcastle here in NSW. Email me at pjbm (at) bigpond (dot) com and I'll send you a copy. Cheers

Thanks Peter,
I found one (attached file) in my own archive.

Is yours the same ?

Laurent.

It probably is, Laurent. The document that you attached was printed in The Sacred Octagon (TSO) of the New England M.G. T. Register back in the early 70's. Robert J. Gibson was the member who created the article for the TSO. There were a number of supplements to the list. All of the information can be found on a copy of the NEMGTR TSO CD-ROM. #1190 is Mr. Gibson's Member No. Bud

I have two Laurent, one being a ripoff of the original article, that erroneously attributes authorship to a South African Car Club. Coincidentally this is being corrected in the June issue of TTORC. The copy and preamble has been with the editor for a few days now. The inclusion was discussed with the actual author, Robert Gibson, a few weeks ago. Between 1962/1967 he also restored TD 5801 that I've owned since 1969. Cheers

In looking at the list, I would say it is probably more helpful if you are restoring a Morris. I have to believe that there are more T's than some of the cars listed

True Bruce, but you have to remember that this list was compiled more than 50 years ago, that there were many more of these British marques here in Oz than there ever were in the States and it was compiled by an Australian. Cheers
