Description of 1952 MG T-Series

What we have here is a 1952 MG TD in un-restored, unning condition with spare frame.

I bought this car in the year 2000 with the intentions of restoring it. I have personally driven the car about 300 miles since I purchased it. It is running and drivable at this time.

The odometer shows 89,000 miles, ut I do not know if that is accurate. The wood seems to be solid and the doors close nicely.

After I bought this car, omeone pointed out to me that there is a difference in the distance from the fender to the radiator on the left and right side. The distance on the right is about 1/2 inch and on the left it is about 1/8 inch. I am not sure you can see this in the pictures, ut Iam not the kind of person who would sell the car without mentioningit. When I found this out I put the car on a rack and found that it had sustained some frame damage that I assume came from an accident a long time ago. The car drives straight and seems fine.

About ten years ago, bought another TD frame and had it sand blasted and painted for when I eventually restored the car. I will throw that in with the car purchase.


The car is titled in PAwith the year 1956 but the VIN is for a 1952. I believe the title is a T-2 title-meaning that it was first titled in PA in 1956. I do not know where it was originally titled.

The reason I am not restoring this car is that I also own 12 MGAs that I intend to restore, nd I figure I should streamline my restorations and stick to one model at this point. If I cannot get my reserve, will restore the car and then sell it. Since retirement, have restored 5 MGAs and one TD, o I know what these cars are worth. I just thought I would try to sell it before I put a lot of money into it.
