MG TD TF 1500 - Unusual eBay TD
| 320813613446 is an unusual-looking TD, resurrected from a barn find, and presumably too far gone to restore to original (just look at the condition of the fenders in the rafters!). And it's the rare Mark I variety, also! The sealed doors are an unusual touch, as is the Kelvinator white paint. Looks like a $5,000 toy to me, needing a lot of work. Tom Lange Bar Harbor, Maine |

| Once you chopped open the doors you would have a hell of a mess.... What is that 2nd last photo.....? |

| Wow! What happened to that tub? I had less to work with on my TD project. It can be done. -David |
| D. Sander |
| Be a big job, cutting the door openings again and lineing all that up. |

| 2nd to last pix: front wings bumper & ?. Not far from me if anyone here is seriously considering it I would go take a look for you and collect more photos. Freshly rebuilt engine is interesting ....depending "who" did it. |

| Tom L., You called this TD, a "rare Mark l variety". I have not heard this ID before. Could you explain what makes it so. George |
| George Raham [TD4224] |
| Tom was quoting the ad. "rare Mark l" |
| David Sheward |
| George - the seller called it the Mark I to distinguish it from the Mark II, I suppose... Because of my interest in the Mark II I was indeed being facetious. Tom Lange Bar Harbor, Maine |

| Yes, but he will never have to go to T-talk to look up the door safety latches. |

| For a little more than twice the money for the car in question, there's this: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/2711036504.html If I were in the market it would certainly get me to follow up. It looks like a nice little survivor in the same hands since 1954! BobbyG |

| Bobby, I am with you. Nice car and a good price. |
| Tom Maine (TD8105) |
| BobbyG, That does look like a sweet little car! Not a bad price, I don't think..... JKB |

| Thank you David and Tom. I missed that comment in the E-Bay description. George |
