MG TD TF 1500 - VIN info needed

Hi Guy's I lately acquired a wreck to restore ( but came with a overhauled engine and gearbox )

I would love to know who has any knowledge about the previous owners. The guy I bought the car from is known of course.

the T register shows the car was build June 18 1953
engine number : xpag/td2/29149
Chassis no : TD 28622

The PO has no records from who he bought the car from
But is sure it was bought by him from a guy in the Commonwealth of Virginia

Thanks

Gerard

Good day:

Attention Mr. Lawson, et al.

TD28625/XPAG28476 (EXLNA), build date:18 June 1953, was registered as BC Number Plate SLJ 938 and was in the Vancouver, B.C. area in the mid to late 1970's.

I never met the owner but the car was coloured black/red with S700 type headlamps sans the "King of the Road" medallions. The lamp bodies were painted red with chromium plated doors (rims). All other visible characteristics were correct for the model year, however; it did sport a wood grained facia board.

Information submitted for what it may be worth.

Cheers then; respectfully:
Jack Emdall, TC6768/TD3191, New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.

A number of years ago I started a Data Base for T cars... I took all the available lists and transcribbed them into it, as well as having a page for entering info...it was up for a number of years until the scammer/robots got it and i was having to delete entries daily.
I offered it to Steve James and it was included in his data base.

It is still up at: http://www.niagarabritishcarclub.org/mgtnumbers/masterlist.php

That is the master that lists names... I left multiple owners thinking it might be a good way to get info on a vehicle's history.... Not sure if Steve kept duplicates or not...

It was also set up to send Mr. Merson's (sp) an email with the info as well......

Gordon,
I followed your link and am thoroughly impressed with the depth and detail of this list. It must have taken quite some time to put it together.
Do you know if anyone is keeping it up to date and how would I contact them?
I would like to give my info to the list.
I thought it might also give me a clue as to my car's history. The name of the owner listed for my car is deceased so my options are limited. His name was Colin Martindale from Alberta CA.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mort

Mort, see http://www.ttalk.info/MersonList.htm for the TD list maintained by George Merson. I host it on my website, http://www.ttalk.info/, but George handles all of the details. A link to him is on the page. Bud

Thanks Bud. I am up to date on his list. I was trying to pursue the other list because it has a prior owner listed. Unfortunately he passed last January. I have no history on my car at all so I am always trying to get some back information.

Does anyone know how to make correction on this list?
