Hmmmmm. That TD has the same set of three switches outboard the speedo that I remember seeing on someones actual one recently (and I've never seen elsewhere).

Hmmmmm.... gee, amazing coincidence?

A couple of weeks ago I bought this ad from a seller on eBay. I gave it to a fellow TD'er, Paul Hinchcliffe, who has an early TD that looks just like the one in the ad. I don't seem to recall that bank of switches. Could it be that you've done some more of your computer magic?

I wonder how much the coke model (sic) has managed to scratch the paint on the wing. Least he could have done was to put his shoe on the runners.

Gordon;
I thought that those switches were installed as a sequential start system for an early anti theft unit.Note ; If you sequence them wrong you get an instant prong springing up from the lower seat squab. Commonly known as an instant pain in the A@#$%^&*().

Conrad - All T seried cars came with a sequential start system. Turn the key on, "pull" the starter, release the hand brake. It's the last part of the sequence that is a real ball buster for Yank, would be car thieves. Cheers - Dave

Well, if you turn the top one on (left driving lamp) and the middle one on (fog lamp), and flip the lower one either way (turn signals), the amp meter gets a good work out!!!!!!
