Three Decades Parked: 1955 MG TF 1500

TD or Not TD: 1953 MG TD

After the war, folks were still driving tall prewar cars. Imagine how it must have felt to see a low slung two-seat convertible that looked like a design from the 1930s. These were something new for America, something called… more»

Estate Sale Find: 1955 MG TF 1500 Roadster

The “estate sale” has already happened, but it might be worth checking to see if this pile of parts sold. It was once a beautiful MG TF 1500 roadster and its relative rarity could make a restoration justified. Well,… more»

Twin-Cam Survivor: 1959 MGA Roadster

Six-Cylinder Garage Find: 1968 MGC GT

While we occasionally feature MGB GTs, less frequently seen are the MGCs with the Austin-derived inline six-cylinder. This example is said to be a garage-find example that was restored many years ago and holding up fairly well. These six-cylinder… more»

Lowest Mileage in Existence? 1995 MG RV8

Here’s a car we don’t talk about often: the 1995 MG RV8, a sort of curtain call for the MGB over a decade after it ceased production. These limited-production convertibles were visually sympathetic to the original MGB, but updated… more»

One Owner Coupe: $3,995 1971 MGB GT
