Description
I bought this car from the vendor, who lived in Las Vegas. I understood the engine needed attention. However, upon inspection, the engine was in good fettle, but a little tired. I had the engine removed, and Park Motors, a highly respected engineering and engine restorer, rebuilt the engine. I have all the bills for parts, and crank work. The engine has been carefully run in by myself, and has completed around 1500 miles since the work was completed. The clutch was renewed, and it seemed a good idea to get the valves done so it runs on unleaded.
The paintwork is immaculate in MG Flame. I had the grill rechromed and new slats fitted. The wheels were refurbished and repainted in the traditional colour.
The seats are covered in black leather and the black steering wheel has a classic look with its four spoke wire hub and MG center button. The dashboard is beautifully finished wood that curves. The clocks are original items, and the clock on the tachometer is brand new, just needs wiring up on positive earth. 12V system.
The car runs beautifully, with no unusual vibrations on noises. I replaced the exhaust with a stainless steel sports sytstem. Should last forever. Tyres in very good condition with plenty of tread left.
I will be removing the rear chrome carrier prior to sale.
Car runs on classic mineral 20/ 50 and gearbox and diff on 140 mineral. Unfortunately the history of the car has been lost somewhere when the previous owner moved house. I have a record of all my expenditure and photographs of work done. My TC has no problems presenting itself at shows, and recieves many compliments.
