It has a fresh paint job and no body rust. This car has the highly desirable MGA rear differential 4.1 gear ratio conversion by Quantum Mechanics in Oxford, Connecticut. This means that the engine can be used at highway speeds. Without this conversion, driving an MG on the highway at 60 mph means the engine is roaring at 5500 rpm, which will destroy the engine crankshaft bushings after a very short time. This car has turn signals, with electronic self-cancel feature, seat belts and new chrome side view mirrors. The standard MG-TD has no turn signals, belts or side view mirrors. This car has a center-high brake light. It has undergone a thorough stripped-down inspection of the wood frame rails and wood body structure.Read the sale listings carefully to see if the MG-TD’s offered have all of these benefits. If not, they may be just tired, old cars which have had a clean-up and a fancy studio photo session to make them look good. They may require a major investment after purchase to come up to the standard of this car. When considering any classic car purchase, ask lots of questions.Payment and ShippingA non-refundable deposit of $250 is due within 24 hours of agreement purchase, payable in cash or by PayPal.
