Hi from Texas

Thanks for welcoming me to the group...I'm the recent (7/3/2020) owner of TD13006, a 1952 MG-TD that I plan to enjoy, not restore. My previous British car experience was with my brother's Bugeye back in the late '60s, so it's been a while :smile:
I'm sure I'll be searching through all the posts here for help in keeping 'Terence' actively on the road.
Present projects are fitting seat belts (to keep me in place during my spirited drives), filling (and then replacing if necessary) the shocks - he bounces quite a bit, and replacing the brakes and cylinders. Also, after removing the rear wheels to work on the brakes, replacing the left side rear axle seal (oil dripping from the brake drum!!!).

Welcome, Steve! Sounds like you're having fun with Terence - the whole point of little British cars!

Hello Steve

Welcome to the forum.

The MG section will be a great resource for you as you work on your MG TD.

Post some photos of your TD.

Bravo! Great looking T!

How's the interior and the engine?

Enjoy and not restore. Good motto to live by.

PS - some T's were fitted by the owner to have a small hydraulic fluid reservoir at the firewall, with tubes running to the shocks, keeping the shocks filled.
