1948 MG TC Boat-Tail Speedster 5-Speed

The car features custom aluminum bodywork and red leather racing seats, while power is provided by a supercharged 1,250cc XPAG inline-four paired with a five-speed T-5 manual overdrive gearbox. Equipment includes maroon 19? wire wheels, dual windscreens, Alfin drum brakes, friction shocks, an engine-turned dashboard, and a Brooklands-style fishtail exhaust system. Exterior details include a mesh grille and headlight protectors, a Brooklands-style fishtail exhaust system, cycle-style fenders, and a storage compartment concealed by the hinged boat tail. Maroon-painted 19? wire wheels feature winged knock-offs and wear Ensign tires showing 2017 date codes. A matching spare is strapped to the left side of the body with a custom leather harness. The axles have been overhauled, and replacement friction shocks are fitted front and rear. Braking is from four-wheel Alfin drums. Fixed-back aluminum racing seats are trimmed in red leather, and black leather boots are installed on the shifter and parking brake levers. Features include linoleum floor covers, a Volkswagen steering column, red seatbelts, twin windscreens, acid-etched brass badging, and a decorative sand-cast aluminum transmission top cover. The Brooklands-style steering wheel sits ahead of an engine-turned dashboard housing a 120-mph speedometer, a reverse-sweep 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges.
