MG TD TF 1500 - Valve cover

The same TD had an interesting valve cover I hadn't seen before....

Wow - that's a new one. I have one of those filler caps, and always thought it was for a radiator...

Reminds me of an old early 4 cylinder Offenhauserfamilur valve cover. I had a modified Ford 60 V8 in mine, but that valve cover looks very familiar.

Mine looked similar to this one. Wow, that was a long time ago!

I have one of those filler covers and it is on a radiator cap.

What are those air filters in Gordons photo? Almost TF.

Cheers,

The filters appear to be MGA and also 1 1/2" carbs.

Hi
My '54 TF has exactly the same valve cover. It says "made in canada" inside. The story from prior owners is that is was placed by the dealer in Toronto, where the car was first sold. I like it. I found a similar side tappet cover to match.

...don't think they are 1 1/2" carbs... look as small as mine....?

Ditto. I have one of those filler caps but it's Chrome and is on the Radiator.
