This 1955 MG TF 1500 was acquired by the seller in 2014 and is powered by a 1.5-liter XPEG inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission. It is finished in red with a black convertible soft top and side curtains over black upholstery. Features include 15″ steel wheels, drum brakes, running boards, rear-hinged doors, fender-mounted mirrors, driving lights, lap belts, and a folding windshield. This TF 1500 is now offered with manufacturer’s literature and a clean Montana title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in red with a black convertible soft top and side curtains, and exterior details include chrome bumpers with overriders as well as wind wings, running boards, rear-hinged doors, fender-mounted mirrors, driving lights, and a folding windshield.
Steel 15″ wheels wear polished hubcaps and are mounted with 165/80 Nankang CX-668 tires. A full-size spare is mounted aft of the fuel tank, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel drum brakes. The seller reports the left rear tire has a slow leak.
The low-back bucket seats are trimmed in black upholstery and are complemented by a color-coordinated dashboard pad, door panels, and carpeting. Interior elements include a dashboard-mounted rearview mirror, lap belts, a passenger grab handle, and dual storage compartments. The turn signals do not operate properly.
The banjo-style steering wheel fronts Jaeger instrumentation consisting of a 105-mph speedometer with an inset clock, a tachometer, and a combination gauge. Readouts for temperature and oil pressure have been added below the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 84k miles miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership. True mileage is unknown.
The 1.5-liter XPEG inline-four is equipped with dual SU carburetors for a factory rating of 63 horsepower and 76 lb-ft of torque. The oil was last changed in 2014, and the seller notes fluid leaks are present.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
