Engine and Mechanics:
The engine is in ok working order. Oil and filter need replacement. Maybe some more work is needed, but I don’t know.
Brakes are good now, they were stuck from not being used for a long time. I recently fixed them, so the brakes are working good now.
The transmission has been recently overhauled; however, it occasionally slips out of 3rd gear. It is driveable like that, but it could use some attention.

Family History:

This MG TD has been a cherished part of our family for decades. My uncle initially bought the car when it was unrestored and covered in brown primer. He drove it almost daily, forming a deep bond with this classic beauty. After his passing, my grandfather acquired the car and embarked on a meticulous restoration project, transforming it into the stunning condition it is in today. He preferred the restoration process over driving, so the car was seldom driven. Upon his illness and subsequent passing, the car became my grandmother’s pride and joy. Now at 90 years old, she no longer drives but wishes for the MG TD to find a new owner who will cherish and enjoy it as much as her late husband and son did.

Additional Details:
This MG TD comes with a rich collection of books and several spare parts, making it a true treasure for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
