1951 MG T-Series

Clear

1951 MG TD/C Mark II also known as the competition model. Very rare low production car with only two owners, both of which in the same family! This car is a true time capsule into the sports car scene of the 1950’s. Equipped with all the goodies that MG owners seek and can only get reproductions of, if they are even available, this car has! This particular MG TD/C Mark II has won multiple concours d’elegance trophies in the 1950’s and 1960’s, most notably at multiple Rallye Glenwood gatherings, and still retains the high quality luster that it exhibited back then. Exceptional detailing, exemplifying the 1950s period sports car and concours touches abounds on this vehicle. From the machined metal finishing details on the dash to the exceptionally clean and detailed undercarriage, this car shows extremely well and drives like new! The car has only 54,700 original miles. The transmission is tight, smooth and quiet and the suspension is perfect and drives with precision. The original Jaeger chronometric gauges operate flawlessly and accurately. As seen in the photos, the badges on the badge bar are original non-reproduction items. The wire wheels are in exceptional shape (from an MG TF) as are the non reproduction polished finned aluminum brake drums. Lighting is exceptional with the Lucas tribar headlamps light the way, but for those really dark nights, the Lucas (non reproduction) SLR576 “flame thrower” driving lights with no pitting or corrosion, (nearly impossible to find in this condition) really cut through the night. The only reproduction parts on the car are the Brooklands steering wheel and the MG Car Company door sill plates. Don’t miss your chance to own a very rare and truly fine example of British Motoring history!
