I just happen to be the Minn-Kota Special Interest Group leader for the Antique Outboard Motor Club ( http://www.aomci.org ).
The TS was built about 1948. It's actually the earliest Minn-Kota with a model number. Before that, they were just "Troller."
Look for a copy of "The Classic Outboard Handbook" by Peter Hunn. This book is written for the novice outboard collector and has a lot of tips on buying and restoring old motors. It also has several "case studies" wherin the author and a couple friends completely disassemble, repair and restore old motors. One of these case studies is a Minn-Kota model TS. Pages 110 to 115 go through everything along with 14 photographs and a parts breakdown diagram.
As a side note, the Evinrude Ducktwin shown on page 58 is mine.
