History
The T-Type was a car produced by Morris Garages from 1936 to 1955 in the TA, TB, TC, TD and TF Midget models, sports cars with separate chassis, front engine, four-speed gearbox with rear-wheel drive.
The TA Midget replaced the PB model with substantial modifications, such as the Wolseley engine with head valves with modified camshafts and ducts and a double-body carburetor. In addition, the four-speed manual transmission now had the two highest gears synchronized and braking was ensured by the 4 230 mm drums. In 1938, the TA was introduced in a convertible version, two doors and ash wood frame with sofa seats and, behind them, a space was created for the transport of the cargo.
Produced in only 252 pieces, it had more luxurious features than those of the roadster as the capote had three different positions: fully open, fully closed and open only above the seats. The latter were singles, and there was a whole set of mats.
The vehicles were supplied with a small body part mounted on the chassis so that the Newport Pagnell coachman could complete the car.
The model, in the standard version, reached 130 km/h of maximum speed and had an acceleration of 0 to 97 km/h of 23.1 seconds.
