Seller's comments about 1951' MG T-Type
Pavilion Gardens | Buxton, Derbyshire
Viewing: Tues 14th October from 12pm
Auction: Wed 15th October from 9am
Location: St John's Rd, Buxton SK17 6BE
1951 MG TD
Estimate
£11, 000 - £13, 000
Registration No: LVS 195
Chassis No: TD7964
MOT: Exempt
Originally exported to the USA before being repatriated in 2005
Displays a believed 74, 461 miles from new
Several tasteful upgrades including an MG B engine and 5-speed manual gearbox as part of a restoration finished in 2013
Comes with a large history file including several invoices for the work done, and a current Swansea V5C
Although, instantly recognisable as a T-series model thanks to its perpendicular radiator shell, flowing wings and rear-mounted spare wheel, the TD broke important new ground for the Abingdon marque. The first MG sportscar to feature either independent double-wishbone front suspension or rack and pinion steering, the newcomer also boasted a hypoid-bevel back axle, hidden scuttle reinforcement hoop (save for the first few cars) and twin leading-shoe front brakes. Powered by the proven 1250cc XPAG engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, it was reputedly capable of 82mph and 26mpg. Riding on fifteen-inch steel wheels as standard, the TD also sported a mirror-image dashboard (thus facilitating either LHD or RHD production) and chrome-plated bumpers. A great success story, the vast majority of the 29, 665 cars produced were sold overseas.More information to follow.
