1948 MG TC Navigation
This 1948 MG TC has been given a restoration with a handcrafted all-aluminum Q-Type body with a boattail design. It was built to resemble a 1933 Mille Miglia MG K3 and is powered by a supercharged inline four-cylinder engine. It has a SU carburetor, a ceramic-coated exhaust manifold, and is paired with an upgraded five-speed manual transmission. There is leather cabin upholstery and K3 Magnette-style seats.
This right-hand drive example has badges and trim by Brookland Motors, Jaeger/Judson SC instruments, a polished chrome grille shell, dual-cowl windscreens, and refurbished Lucas L165 headlamps with stone guards by Vintage Headlight Restorations. There are dual petrol fillers, chrome knock-off wire-spoke wheels, a side-mounted spare, updated Excelsior Stahl Sport radial 5.50xR16 tires, and front and rear marker lamps.
This MG has a modern steering kit, front and rear parallel leaf spring suspension, and Alfin cast aluminum hydraulic brake drums.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2024
