MG TD TF 1500 - Ebay and brain melt-down.

There's a TD for sale at Beverly Hills Car Club for $7,500.00. It's listed on Ebay.....


Yep.... the bidding has gone to $8,101.00.

A little research goes a long, long way.

MAndrus - not sure what you mean. Other than the wrong engine and transmission, wrong dash and instruments, wrong seats, door panels and carpet, wrong paint, wrong wiper motors(!), missing bumper overriders, and stupid price, what's your concern? Remember, it's an "excellent original" car - the dealer SAYS it is!

Pretty much a mess. I'd take it for 5k though.

Dash and seats are gone. Windshield frame's been butchered. Holes all over the body, tail lights are wrong.....

That'll buff right out.

I've seen that one before-- was impressed with the creativity in drawing the dash center and glove box outline...

That is one fugly little car. It is a rolling parts car, that happens to run. Maybe.

Yes but weren't you impressed with the clever lift point locations? Jud

You know... if the engine/trans and chassis are good starting points, it would make a great start to a tribute racer.

Built-it-yourself dash, interior. Cycle fenders out front with twin race 'shields.

I bid $4,500.00.
MAndrus

At $8,101 it sold for all the money, IMHO. I would not have paid more than $4 for it, and would not be confident of getting my money back as a parts car. No engine, trans or dash - the three most valuable parts of the car, a decent tub and front fenders, but weird tail lights on the rear. Bumpers trash, interior trash, butchered windshield - etc., etc. etc.

The high bidder could have called them last month and offered $7K and gotten it.

A sad example of what may have, at one time, been a TD.

I like the dual windshield wipers. Haven;t a clue what they are from.
