1954 MG TF 1250

MGTF Restoration-in-Process

I bought this MG in 1968 and started a ground-up restoration in 1984, working-on and driving it regularly until 1997, when life got in the way. It has been up on blocks ever since.

History from 1968: every new part and bit of work done on it documented in detailed spreadsheet. Garaged at all times. $12,869.28 total parts and labor invested.

Matching numbers car with clear title.

Chassis – HDP 46/1826 Engine – XPAG/TF 30669

Restoration includes:

• Chassis & Frame: sandblased, primered, painted.

• Body: rust free, rebuilt fuel tank, tub rebuilt with new timber and sheet metal, new canvas top, original side-curtains.

• Engine: bored and sleeved (to +.020) with new pistons, rings, tappets, valves and bearings. Rebuilt SU carbs.

• Prop shaft, steering column, suspension and brake system – all rebuilt or overhauled with new parts as needed.

89,532 original miles when speedometer reset at engine rebuild in 1987. 8,763 miles logged since then.
