1953 MG TD/C Mark II 5-Speed

The distinctive and classic 1953 MG TD/C Mark II is a charming British roadster currently residing in Emeryville, California. Manufactured in the United Kingdom in the mid-20th century, this vintage convertible boasts an era-appropriate charm that belies its robust engineering. Unlike many of its contemporaries, this late 1953 model has been lovingly retrofitted with a Ford five-speed manual transmission for improved driving dynamics while retaining its original 1.3-liter XPAG inline-four engine. The vehicle's history in California is marked by an extensive restoration project completed in 2006, involving body refinishing and replacement, frame suspension upgrades, and an overall meticulous attention to detail that ensures this classic retains its timeless appeal even amidst contemporary automotive offerings.
