MG TD TF 1500 - Picture request

Looking for a picture of the TD that has the frame and wood on it before you attach the metal to the wood. I also need a picture of the door with the wood frame on it.

If you can send it to my email above that would be outstanding.

Thanks

That's not a likely combination. The tub sheet metal is attached to the wood before the assembly is attached to the frame,IIRC. Bud

Thanks La Verne. Sorry for the confusion?

LaVerne, is that a rare "Town and Country" model TD?

Here's a couple of pictures of a tub in restoration. Is this what you're looking for?

Some of these pictures are of a TC tub. The last picture is of. TC, TD and a TF tub. The TD tub has a metal cross brace behind the seats. This is plywood with an angle iron brace on the TC.

Previous owner removed the wood from the passenger door and aquired new. I put in the new wood but did give some thought to making a "woody" at the time. Not the right car for the project but something I might have done if the sheet metal had been wasted on the bottom.

Thanks a million. That is exactly what I was looking for.
