Description

This 1955 MG TF 1500 has resided with the same family since 1962. The car was placed into storage at some point in the 60s and has been there ever since until this year when it was subjected to a full process of recommissioning. The car has been very well preserved indeed over the decades and as a result was only in need of recommissioning process which involved stripping and cleaning the engine which was found to be in excellent condition and then a process of repainting various body panels along with other general recommissioning. Other work carried out includes a complete re-wire, removal of the gearbox and the mounts and the front oil seal were replaced.The chassis was cleaned and treated with waxoyl. The brake shoes were replaced the entire braking system checked with fluids replaced. All brightwork was re-chromed or renewed. A new stainless steel exhaust system has been fitted. The wheels were blasted and repainted and new tyres have been fitted. The end result as you will see in the photographs is a superb looking example of what is a relatively rare car.

The history file includes the original buff log book which confirms that this car has had only six keepers during its life, the last of which bought the car in May 1962. The buff log bog also confirms this to be a home market right hand drive car.

The paint on the car is excellent having been the subject of a full respray and the interior is largely unmarked although the dashboard is showing its age with some light surface rust in places. The hood is also in excellent condition. The car also has a full complement of wet weather gear.

The car starts on the button and runs cleanly and pulls through the gears without issue. The TF 1500 is undoubtedly the car to have given its rarity and greater power output. This particular example presents extremely well and has a full ownership history and is now ready for its next custodian.
