“The TF has now become one of the most collectible and desirable models of the MG family. MG planned on delivering the new and more powerful MGA by 1955, but its development was still dragging on. MG’s wise decision was to put the new and more powerful 1500 cc engine designed for the “A” into the “TF.” So the MG TF “1500” was introduced at the end of 1954. Just 3,400 of these cars were built and the TF “1500” has become very collectible today.”-stableltd

This 1955 MG TF remained under the same ownership from 1955 to June of 2002. During that period, the TF was taken off the road in 1972 and stored inside. In July of 2002, this MG underwent an extensive restoration over the following 7 months. The MG TF was taken off the frame, stripped of all its paint and was cosmetically and mechanically restored. Spending most of its early life in the California Bay Area, the MG’s body was free of rust and still maintains its original wood. Photos of the complete restoration are available.

Subsequently relocated to Canada in 2015 the MG TF was sold again in 2023 and was back in the United States. The most recent repairs on this MG have been replacing the front wheel cylinders and the addition of windshield-mounted side mirrors.

The red exterior paint and red leather upholstery on this MG TF show very well with only signs of light wear. The banjo-style steering wheel and Jaeger gauges are also in particularly good condition as would be expected for a car that underwent a quality restoration with only 22,155 original miles. All gauges with the exception of the inset clock appear to be working as intended.

The silver finished wheels are accented with chrome plated center caps and surrounded by Michelin ZX tires. The red paint shows off well against the tan top and side curtains which are again in very good condition. The underside of this TF remains exceptionally clean with the added benefit of a stainless-steel exhaust.

Turn the key and listen for the tick of the fuel pump, set the choke, and pull the starter knob and the XPEG 1500cc engine comes to life with a smooth idle. Soon you will be enjoying the motoring characteristics of a classic British Sports Car.
