Tamora Owners Help Required... Door Seals

[glow worm]

I have a PH member mitch79 living in Southern Italy , wants a full set of "muckets seals" (door seals) for his Tamora. Unfortunately they look non standard to me and not like ones I'm making . Maybe they are aftermarket or possibly TVR did different versions (it might be a lefthand drive car ..I don't know). If any Tamora owner can shed any light on it , I would appreciate it .
The "B" post one is definitely different (sorry can't manage to get the photo upright) :-



Compared to :-


The "A" post also maybe different :-



PS Soon I'll be offering "A","B" & "C" post Tamora muckets..... and yes a Tamora is meant to have a "C" post one, I think most fell off years ago

I don't suppose you would like to remove one and send it to me , so I can scan it, repair it and send you a new pair (FREE)

I had hoped that you were not going to say that...I will speak to Joolz (when she come home from work, as it is her car)...These are near perfect, BUT, my drivers side are the ones I actually need as they are knackered. (Sent you an email Keith). A@

Adrian, What year is the car ? MK! or MK2 ? .... Trying to work out why there are two versions .... I think both "A" and "B" posts are different.... Maybe it's just a TVR thing.... pot luck .

Mk1 and a half, but, 2003 ...our muckets were the same as my mate Martin's 2005 (prior to him buying his Tuscan convertible) as I made a point of checking his, as I had used his car (made moulds from his car whilst it was being re-trimmed) to upgrade the interior 'C' post panels (mine were Mk1 versions) and the rear floor wings (which were missing). I bought a Convert 'C' mucket (it is on my desk here) simply because I was looking/thinking of/at swapping into the larger version of 'C' when I get the hood recovered. A@

I'm told a chap call John Reed/Reid (another not John of Grantura /Tuscan Challenge/ Diff fame) became "The TVR Mucket Man" .... I think I've inherited his role

Hi Keith..I will need an address. Pop it on the email I have sent.

Did you ever manage to make the set of replacement seals you were talking about Adrian?

Very interested in finding a set for my Tam which is being rebuilt.

Thanks

I did make a set (As and Bs) for Adrian and the guy in Italy , based on one side of Adrians' car and mirror imaging the other . However Adrian told me the mirrored side was significantly different ( can't remember which side or if it was A or B post) . He was going to send me an original of the part in error, but he's been busy and I've not heard from him since.
These are the only two Tams I've come across with the odd muckets every other Tam has been the same as T350 and Sagaris.

Hi Keith, as you say busy, drivers front on my car is still running the original (very tacky but bodged on) as you say very busy, but I do still need it sorting I will try looking to get it back off over weekend...if that is good with you still. A@
