Link to The Roadster Factory TR2-3B Spare Parts Catalog


Recommended Posts

For those who might be curious what parts Charles Runyan and TRF offer for our sidescreen cars, they've just put together a website catalog.

Note there are saveable pdf links at the bottom of that landing page (with illustrations and part number references but not current pricing).

Nice step forward.

 

As a catalogue writer, I still prefer the final printed copy - call me old fashioned....

PS I see they have a reproduction of the very smart AMCO gearknob with threaded insert, I have a real AMCO knob on my car from the days when C&B were the UK/Europe importers of AMCO product.

Charles started the gearstick knob project in 2015. At the time he was getting the insert made in Birmingham, UK. Who knew they had a jewelry quarter.. The resident woodworker turns the knob.

 

These wooden gear knobs are not my cup of tea but they look nice for the folks that want a good repro period piece.

 

There is something else I am excited about tonight. When I came into The Roadster Factory this evening, I found a package that had been left for me. Quite small, but it held the first one-hundred Triumph gearshift knob badges that had been manufactured for me recently in the jewelry quarter of Birmingham. They look really nice, very much like the old AMCO originals. Actually, quite identical. I will have Karen Border post a photo of the badge and the other components that we will soon be putting together into gearshift knobs. We had the threaded inserts made in aluminium as original in both thread-types earlier, and we invested in a “duplicator” that Wood Chuck Findley will use to turn the knobs on a lathe. He has been practicing, and he showed me some of his first attempts yesterday. We have all of the components now, and we will have completed knobs in a couple of weeks. I will take photos along the way and let you know how everything turns out.
