1952' MG Td

Following the immediate post war success of the MG TC, Nuffield launched the updated design of the TD in 1949, an immediate success, designed with the export market in mind,the car was the first production MG to be offered in left hand drive, with a new chassis based on the MG YA, rack and pinion steering together with front coil springs and wishbones. The proven pre war design of the 1250 cc XPAG engine was continued, and provided the power unit throughout the T series range until production finished in the mid 1950's. Over 75% of the MG TD production was exported, with the improved TD II engine being fitted

Description and History
Built on the 2nd January 1952, as TD 2, the TD was first registered in the UK prior to being regsistered in Jersey during the 1990’s. It has been restored at some time in it’s life, and is in smart BRG with a tan leather interior complimented by chome wire wheels. Mechanically the MG has been enhanced with an MGA back axle together with MGB front hubs fitted with disc brakes. The BMC reconditioned engine appears to be enhanced as the performance is better than a standard MG TD II and is driven a MGB gearbox. There is a long history file with the car detailing it maintainence and service over the years.
