Up for auction is this beautiful 1953 MG TD in silver and red. 1953 was the only year MG offered the TD in silver and the only year they offered the wire wheel option. We are selling this beautiful car for a customer. We have serviced this car for the past 10 years and have been in the British automotive service and restoration business since 1986. This car is the most "heavily optioned" TD we have had come through our shop. This car is equipped with a front anti roll or "sway" bar, heat, arm rest, luggage rack, Alfin aluminum brake drums, Rear tube style shock absorbers, Chrome duel horn caps, Chrome sparkplug separators and a full tool kit including the factory plug in flash light. Prior to the car coming into the shop to be sold, it had not been used for about two years. We have been maintaining this car for the past 10 years. We did a complete fluid service, changing every fluid including the oil which was changed with Valvoline VR1 hi zink which we have been using for many years. A full tune up was preformed including a timing and valve lash check. We also did a complete brake system check and service, replacing all wheel cylinders, brake shoes and flex hoses. A complete front to rear bumper inspection was completed and no other repairs were found to be needed. The car is as clean underneath as it is on top and drives beautifully. The car needs nothing except it's next loving owner! We just finished a full detail of the car inside and out and are now offering it for auction. If you have any questions about the car, please feel free to phone us at Stonebridge Sports and Classics Ltd (203) 744-1120 On Aug-03-14 at 21:31:30 PDT, seller added the following information: Something I forgot to mention in the listing is that the car comes with side curtains that are in like new condition and the top and top cover are canvas and are also in like new condition.
