Description of 1950 MG T-Series TD

For sale is this original equipment 1950 MG TD, erial #TD 2971, n very good condition with the odometer at 47,696. Serial number match on the on the main plate and the engine block, o it has the original motor. I have been the owner of this car for the last 45 years and have used it sparingly and stored it in garage conditions on jack stands when not used. It could be rehabilitated quickly and inexpensively for fun, r would make a great base for a full restoration. It has not been started for years, o care would be required in bringing it back to life. The title is clear.
Several features are key to the value of this car. First, here is NO RUST! There is no body damage or dings. I'm assuming the paint job is the original and other than some minor chips, t is in great condition. The engine was overhauled (see below) and is pristine as can be seen in the photos. The tires are still fully inflated. The top and side curtains are in good shape.
Issues that will require some attention are the seating which is not original, owever I had purchased the seats and seat back but never installed (a $1000 value at Moss Motors - pictured). Upholstery kits are available to finish to original seating. The dashboard is original but will require some attention to restore. There are normal dry rot issues on rubber and foam parts. The steering wheel should be replaced which I also purchased but never installed (a $400 value - pictured). The right front wheel is currently seized. The key has been misplaced and a locksmith may be required if I can't find it.
History -- I purchased this car in 1970 in good running condition with 47,100 miles on the odometer. It was used for some short commuting for a few months. After a move, t was always garaged with some short junkets for fun. In 1975, arranged a trade out with a MG mechanic to overhaul the engine. After that, t was used only for only one trip of about 350 miles and more fun junkets up until 1980 when it was permanently garaged onto jack stands. The odometer is 47,696.
Restored 1950 MGTDs are selling for $20K with no mention of all original equipment.
