1950/1952 MG TD Right Hand Drive

1950 MG T-Series Description

The recent buyer requested the sale be cancelled so I'm re-listing. Note I have added several more pictures. When I pulled the title after the prior sale i saw that it was listed as a 1952 model not as a 51 model as the original ad said. Pictures I include this time show the two bow top of an early 1950 TD plus condition of side curtains and the medallion on the motor with the engine number matching the brass plate. Also some ash wood parts from Abingdon Spares I did not install for some un-remembered reason, and some pictures of the car as purchased, stripped and being reassembled.

This would be a great start to a full restoration or just a fun driver with some mechanical work. Lots of new parts and work previously put into the car

I purchased the car from a local MG enthusiast. He told me the engine had been rebuilt by the previous owner. Never had a reason to doubt that but I can offer no proof. In the time I drove this I had no issues with the engine other than it running hot. More on that later.

Here is a list of the cars deficiencies as I remember them.

The listed mileage is what is on the odometer. I have no idea of the actual mileage.

The original air filter is gone. PO replaced with chrome side mounts. Those are not presently on the carbs and I'm not sure I can find them. But I never drove the car without the filters on. Those were removed for carb adjusting after rebuild and minutes before setting the car on fire!!
