Vehicle description
The TC Midget was the first postwar MG, and was launched in 1945. The TC is quite accurately well known as the (specific) car that caused the Sport Car "craze" in America. It was quite similar to the pre-war TB, sharing the same 1,250 cc (76 cu in) pushrod- OHV engine with a slightly higher compression ratio of 7.4:1 giving 54.5 bhp (40.6 kW) at 5200 rpm. The makers also provided information for several alternative stages of tuning for "specific purposes". The XPAG engine is well known for its tunability. The TC engine was a slightly improved version of the XPAG first introduced to MG in the TB. Notable improvement was through the addition of a hydraulically (oil pressure) adjusted timing chain tensioner. All TCs utilized a (single battery) 12 volt electrical system. All TCs came with 19" Dunlop wire wheels. Automatic mechanical timing advance was built into the ignition distributor. This 1947 MG TC had undergone a complete frame off restoration by Malcom Castle a well known member of the Michigan MG T Register. The car includes the following from the restoration and added recently. New Coach Wood and floors Base Coat Clear Coat Finish in Red New Leather Seating and Carpet New Frame Mounted Seat Belts Mona Lita Steering Wheel New Luggage Rack New Water Pump New Modern Thermostat Housing Moss Remote Oil Filter Assembly 12v Battery New Wiring Harness and Relay Center Restored Side Curtains Full Canvas Top Lucas King of the Road Tripod Lighting MG TC Owners Handbook Finned Cast Aluminum Valve Cover and Lifter Cover New Stainless Steel Muffler and Exhaust Pipe Notice to Bidders: All of the vehicles we list on are for sale locally.
