1953 mg td - saint louis, moit’s alive automotivesaint louis, mo 63044ph: 3143485774web: www. Itsaliveautomotive. Comoptions:description:we're pleased to offer this mg td factory competition model. These models are designated by a /c in the chassis number and had a second set of shock absorbers all round (8 shocks total), larger carburetors, higher compression, dual fuel pumps, and a higher ratio rear axle, the latter of which is a plus for modern traffic. This car's engine number matches the number on the id plate so it's also matching numbers. Most accounts indicate there were a total of 1710 /c models produced which makes them quite rare out of the total td production of over 29,000 cars. This car set for many years and we've just completed going through all the brake hydraulics, oil and filter change, anti-freeze change, checking carburetors, replacing all the hoses, installing a new battery, rear spring pads, and a few other minor things. It runs and drives quite well with with good oil pressure, no smoke and in the normal temperature range. It does have some of the typical oil dripping as these cars don't have a modern type rear crankshaft seal. The body is very solid and any exposed wood that we could see and touch was all very solid. It has a good top that is well fitted. The leather seats were professionally done to a high standard and the carpets are all good as well. This car was restored some time ago and the overall restoration is still holding up well save some paint flaws here and there. The paint is still nice and shiny and the car looks very good from 6 to 10 feet. However, up close there is some age related checking starting to appear in places. There are also a few little chips and scratches but nothing terribly bad. Pretty much all of the bright work is very nice and there's a set of 5 michelin radials. There's also a complete tool kit, jack, and engine crank. Leather Seats
