1953 MG TD Navigation
This MG TD has been in the same care for over 5 decades. It was purchased by Werner Spier M.D. on June 4th of 1960, from a Dallas Coca-Cola executive, who is believed to be the original owner. The Coca-Cola executive had the car finished in a two-tone finish, in red and white, with the tonneau cover done to match. At the time, the car showed just 39,500 miles and cost Dr. Spier $1,050. At the time, the car also had two period accessories; it had an aluminum valve colors and an Accessories Ltd. steel spare-tire cover.
In 1990 and 1991, the MG TD was given a complete restoration. The factory original colors are believed to be ivory with green, however Dr. Spier requested Reno Red with a tan interior and top, with a tonneau to match.
The Spier family retained the car for over 2 decades.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2014
