MG TC

The MG TC was the first MG to go back into production after the war, and it was essentially a reworked pre-war TA/TB. It kept the 1930s look that buyers wanted: a dual-cowl dashboard, fold-flat windscreen, cutaway doors, separate wings and a rear-mounted spare. It was especially popular with American servicemen, and many early exports went there. Power comes from a 1,250cc overhead-valve four-cylinder making 54 bhp, with a four-speed synchromesh gearbox and a top speed near 80mph.

This is a UK-supplied car that was restored around 20 years ago and has since been owned by enthusiasts. The history file includes the original buff log book and a run of invoices going back about 50 years. Full weather equipment is included, with side screens. The page gives no mileage, registration or colour.
