Thanks to Tom Fansher and Darrell, we now have four data points for the TR4
tank vent pipe hole diameter:
CT 5521 LO: 1/2"
CT 7966 L: 1/2"
CT 11880 L: 1"
CT 13917 L: 1"
This seems to confirm the CT 11664 change point in the Moss catalog for the
grommet size (way to go, Moss!)
Thanks again for those measurements... I really appreciate it! Sounds like
my car is a solid '62... or at least the body tub and engine are.
The car has a long-bubble bonnet. Assuming it's original, this would
tentatively narrow the range to CT 6429 - CT 11663. I'm making a table with
the commission-number ranges implied by other components, but several of them
don't agree with each other (for example, domed-glass gauges and tube-frame
seats).
I'll try to read the "body-in-white" number later today or tomorrow and go
from there.
