AI Listing Summary

This 1938 MG TA, one of only 3,003 ever made, is coming from a deceased estate after 29 years of ownership. While it may have been restored in the early 90's, it's now presented as a winter project car, with the radiator needing rechroming, but includes a full set of weather gear and original tools.

Condition

The car is described as being in generally good shape for its age, but the radiator grille needs rechroming. It was last driven about three years ago and was in good running order when parked up. There are also some invoices for new parts fitted in 1999 and 2008, suggesting that some reconditioning has been done in the past. Overall, the car appears to be in moderate condition, with some wear and tear but still functional and presentable.
