there was three radiator changes from the TX to TG. the early model TX's had a slide in radiator that bolted to the bottom of the adiator panel.
TC/TD had a of simaliar size to the TX but it had four bolts holes along the front panel.
TE/TF/TG had the same has the TC/TD but a larger radiator then the previous cars.
Accelator cables
TX
The TX had a push in accelator cable but had two adjustable bolts for the carby
TC-TG had a screw in cable these cables are interchangable between these models as the early models had metal adjusting nuts compared to plastci adjustables. |
