The MG TD was produced from 1949 to August of 1953. During that period there were many subtle changes, but nothing drastic. Only 98 TDs were made in 1949, 2 RHD and 96 LHD. There were a total of four model years – 1950, 1951, 1952 and 1953, and the models are nowadays referred to as the MG TD, TD2 and TD Mark II.

A former owner had completed a four-year frame off restoration before it was put in auction and purchased in August of 2001.
