Debuting in 1946, the sprightly MG TC appeared in time for many American servicemen returning from WWII to ship one home – introducing much of the US to the concept of the sports car. The TC’s inspired proportions and timeless design are perfectly exemplified here by this attractive red over black example. According to the MG Car Club T Register, this TC was completed on January 13, 1949 as an export model and it retains its original XPAG engine. Registrations on file document that by 1979 the MG was in California, and by 1983 it had been purchased by Stan Lucas, who had always wanted a TC after seeing one in his early years. Offering classic sports car fun at an approachable price point, this MG would make a smile-inducing addition to any collection.
