1953 MG TD

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this awesome 1953 MG TD Pro Street for your
consideration! This thing is an absolute beast with a 6.0L LS that has been upgraded to make
plenty of power. The motor features Eagle H beam rods, Weisco racing pistons, the heads are
fully ported, and it has an Edelbrock pro flow fuel injection system, polished stainless steel
valves, an aluminum radiator, and plenty of other Edelbrock goodies to round out the build.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a turbo 350 transmission and with a 3500 stall
converter and console-mounted B&M pro ratchet shifter. After the transmission, power goes
through the trick chassis Ford 9-inch rear end with spool and 370 gearings.
Done by Checkered Racing out of Indianapolis, IN, the frame is a custom one-off 2x3 square
tube. Sitting atop the frame is a straight and true body from a Fiberfab MG TD replica, a
well-known producer of fiberglass bodies and kit cars. Finished in a beautiful metallic orange
paint, the exterior is aggressive with the Vision wheels wrapped in thick Mickey Thompson ET
Street tires. Other exterior highlights include a side exit exhaust, roll bar, and LED headlights.
All interior work was custom done by Nick Hardy of Hardy Upholstery located here in Grand
Rapids, MI. The beautiful two-tone leather is in great condition as are all interior trim pieces and
the RJS Racing harnesses. All gauges are from AutoMeter and there's even a push-to-start
button.
With a fantastic suspension setup and Wilwood disc brakes at all four corners, this MG TD is a
rocketship that hooks right up but can also stop on a dime. This pro-street TD has been built
with the highest level of skill and passion and it shows through the extremely high quality
throughout. You will be hard-pressed to find another example like the one being offered here.
