Exterior and Interior
Automotive design surely has come a long way since the ’50s, cars of today lack character, style, and aesthetic appeal in comparison to what was churned out on factory floors back in the day. Look at this 1953 MG TD with its red exterior, for instance — you really can't take your eyes off it. The iconic open top styling features a tan convertible top that, when down, makes for driving memories that are unmatched. Once you are done admiring this classic from afar, a closer look at the iconic exterior and you are treated to the car's chrome and exterior components all in place and in excellent condition. The iconic factory '50s styling transitions into a set of color-matched wheels and period-correct hubcaps, which are wrapped with white wall tires for added effect. Step into the tan interior of this 1953 MG TD and you are treated to a whole lot of character and movement, all fueled by mechanical precision and old-world charm. The cabin of this MG appears to be in factory form with all its trim present and in excellent shape. Looking to explore and have luggage in hand? Worry not, the current owner reports that a folding luggage rack is in place.

Pop open the hood of this 1953 MG TD, and what you will find in place is a 1250 CC four-cylinder old school British motor thumping away and ready for action. Much like the exterior, the engine bay is completely prim and proper. A closer look at the engine bay and you would find a twin carb fueling system providing a whole lot of grunt and aesthetic value. In terms of power delivery, this ’50s British classic channels all its performance to its rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission, giving you much more control of your drive experience.

In the Fifties, American cars were getting bigger, more brutish and powerful. V8s were the norm, as were flared fenders, massive overhangs and bulbous designs. Meanwhile, across the pond in Great Britain, things were very different. The motorcar was of a more compact stance, with small, frugal engines and lower levels of sheer size and bulk. The MG T-Type series of open-topped two-seater sports cars was a great case in point. Actually, the series was called the Midget and produced between 1936 and 1955. Today’s 1953 MG TD comes from the tail end of the series, then. With a mere 26,663 miles, this Kentucky-based curio is definitely worthy of consideration if you want something that’s totally different from the rest.
