Ive been wanting to buy this  oh so original  MG TB for 20 years.
And now I have it.
But then I was young, and now Im 81 and because of saggy knees, cant get in it !!!!
So, here it is, probably the most original TB of these vary rare cars 
Its last,marqe main distributer, bought it from his employee who had it from 1965, and according to its Buff log book, may have been the second or third owner.   My friend and last owner had the car for 58 years and as a main BMW dealer, put it into his body shop for a colour change to Black. This was of course in those days , painted in cellulose and still maintains its original, deep , shine that can only be achieved by this now forgotten finish material.
The car is in truly an example of a time warp MG as it would look after a year or so's use.
The owner had a property in the South of France and prepared the car for the journey with a new set of wheels and tyres, a full greasing, and servicing,it still has the external grease points,a luggage rack,and a five speed gearbox, fitted by me, an original box is with the car,a Thomson Steering conversion, so it steers properly, and  it needed the extra high gear for the trip and the car performed superbly.
I was amazed to find that the hood material was Wigan, the fore runner of Double Duck, [what ever that is, never seen one any way,] a Ive only seen 2 cars with it. A TA MG and this one, and its original, and  perfect.
It has the origional spotlight and Altet
After that., it was only used for the occasional show and run as the owner had other gems to drive too.
I tried many times to buy the car, but it was always priced a little high, and though it was worth it, I didnt have that amount to put it away and occasionally use it. Then when I can afford it, age stops me using it!!
Once I was a young man...
So the car is offered in lovely original condition, with nice hood, side screens and tonneau, excellent chrome and original forgotten about TB fixings.
VSCC eligible for many events, and also can gain entry for the highly prestigious, Historic Mille Miglia., and would I like to do that!
There is a romantic association about this prewar MG, used during the war and maybe part of it in some way.
It certainly has that feel about it.
If you want an original all matching numbers TB, this is it. Not over done or with modern 2 pack shiny Ford paint, but as it should be.
Im offering it under the price of some of the over restored cars and hope it is within an acceptable price structure. You can always make me an offer.
£42500.
