**** THE VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN ANNAPOLIS VALLEY, NOVA SCOTIA
This 1955 MG TF was purchased by the previous owner in 1972 and has since been fitted with a 1.8-liter B18 inline-four and a four-speed manual transmission sourced from a Volvo P1800. The car is finished in green over a green and black interior, and features include a black soft top, 15″ knock-off wire wheels, chrome exterior trim, a wood steering wheel and dash, and vinyl seating. The dual SU carburetors were rebuilt in September 2020, and additional work consisted of replacing the clutch cylinders, brake components, fuel tank sending unit, and tires. This TF is now offered by the seller on behalf of his father with an owner's manual, partial service records, and a clean Nova Scotia title.
The body has reportedly been refinished in its current shade of green, and exterior features include a black soft top with a plastic rear window, side mirrors mounted to the front fenders, and chrome bumpers and exhaust finishers. 15″ knock-off wire wheels are mounted with Michelin XZX tires that were installed in September 2020. A matching spare is mounted out back, and braking is handled by drums at all four corners. Additional work completed in September 2020 included fitting a replacement master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and front brake shoes.
The seats are upholstered in olive green vinyl, and matching upholstery extends to the dash pad and door panels. A custom walnut dash insert has been added, and additional appointments include a wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel, two dash storage compartments, and black carpeting. VDO instrumentation includes a replacement 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline. The five-digit odometer shows just under 7k miles, approximately 500 of which were added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown. The car is titled in Nova Scotia using engine number 617 shown on the chassis plate that can be found in the gallery.
The replacement 1.8-liter B18 inline-four and four-speed manual transmission were reportedly sourced from a Volvo P1800. The dual SU carburetors were rebuilt by Whitney's Classic Automotive of Bakersfield, California in September 2020, and additional work completed at that time included cleaning the fuel tank, installing an electric radiator fan, and replacing the clutch cylinders, fuel filter, sending unit, and hoses. A radiator overflow tank has also been fitted. A rear differential from an MGB has also been added. Additional photos of the underbody are included in the gallery, and walk-around and driving videos are provided.
