TD
Extremely original left hand drive TD which appears and drives as it left the factory. The current and 4th owner reports that it probably had a bare body quality respray at some point in its life. Everything on the vehicle operates including the heater with the exception of the clock. The top and side curtains are in very good condition. It still retains the original hand crank and owner's manual but the tool kit is not complete. The current owner commissioned a $9,000 complete engine overhaul to TF specifications less than 1,000 miles ago. Overhaul included a spin on filter and adjustable oil pressure. The British motor restoration specialist and noted MG racer commented on the condition of the car and scored the car 88 out of 100 points with an estimated value at the time of $28,800. Of particular note is the scored condition of all structural components including the ash in the frame, all scoring 5 out of 5. During its life the car has seen service to its owners in New York City, Pound Ridge, NY, Niskayuna, NY and Burnt Hills, NY. Probably one of the best MGTD's you will ever find and ready for many, many enjoyable British motoring miles. The current owner has the original banjo style steering wheel but the outer rim is in poor but restorable condition and some spare parts including but not limited to fuel pump, wiper motor, valve cover gaskets, an complete emergency travel spare parts kit and two car covers that the new owner is welcome to have and the history file as he has it and complete during his ownership.
Estimate: $19,000-$20,000
