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.
