[TR] TR3 - how does the door latch strap fasten to the door latch

Sat May 30 05:32:53 MDT 2020

 Yes, we use many technical terms here.  Terms like whatjamacallit, thingamajig, whatsit, doodad.  These terms are very handy when you are trying to be precise.  Just a few of the "improvements" we yanks have made to The Queen's English.  ;-)

Cheers

Dave

Subject: Re: [TR] TR3 - how does the door latch strap fasten to the door latch Cool idea, Andrew! I haven't attempted it yet but I imagine working inside the door to attach cables might be a bit more challenging than working connections to the out-the-panel version of the TR2's/3's.... Dave On Fri, May 29, 2020 at 5:21 PM andrew uprichard <auprichard at uprichard.net> wrote:

Can’t swear as to originality, but the ones on my 57 TR3 are leather on the outside but the leather encases a link chain – with the latch shaft going through the end link and held in place by a nut while the end link at the other end is secured by a screw under the escutcheon for the outer leather strap. Keith Stewartkeithstewart at bell.net   From: DAVID MASSEY <dave1massey at cs.com>

Subject: Re: [TR] TR3 - how does the door latch strap fasten to the door latch Yes.  My biggest question is where can I get those parts?  Dave says the inner part is heavy gauge leather.  It looks like the outer is thinner, more supple leather.  I have neither.  Does anyone sell these parts? ** triumphs at autox.team.net **
