Love the padding around the dash

Be interesting to see what this one sells for.

By the looks of the oil filter, it's earlier than a 53

Round tail lights, though. Price at $3K now, seems about right to me.

Looks like an ok buy...wouldn't take much to pull that "crash padding" off....

His other add has a Jaguar and it too needs a fuel pump and battery. I think he has an enema that eliminates his pumps and batteries. Wonder what the white holey spots on the bottom rear of the front right fender. They look strange as if you can see right through. I do like his crash pad. Looks like a dried python draped around the panel.
I still think it is ripe for restoration.

Appears that they painted all of the car the same color. All the underside, frame etc. is red.

Didn't know that the piping around the dashboard is in fact an inflatable airbag.

There is no such thing as an "easy" restoration, or an "easy MGTD", for that matter.
