Details: Wed like to introduce you to Niles! This incredible example of the MG TF has been owned by the current owner since 1969 and the attention given to its care is obvious from the first glance! Niles was purchased by its caretaker in Joseph, Oregon following a full restoration. This is a fully numbers matching car, verified by the chassis horn and engine plaque (see photos of both in the gallery). Niles is chassis no. TF1565 and original no. XPAG/TF/31636. A full repaint happened in the 1980s, changing the car to the silver you see currently, with the original color being Birch Gray. Overall great condition on the paint and body with no rust! A few minor imperfections are outlined in the photos. The wood structure is extremely solid, just one advantage of being stored inside its whole life. An auxiliary 8 gallon gas tank has been installed in 2015 to avoid the yearly cleaning and buildup issues of the factory tank inherent with these cars. The original gas tank is extremely solid as well and just needs a cleaning to be put into service again. This car runs, drives and stops just as it should and all instruments and switches work including the turn signals, horn and heater. The horns were replaced in 2014, the clutch has less than 300 miles on it and a 4.3:1 ratio rear end was just installed in 2016 by Dave Clark as well. The speedometer and clock were rebuilt in 2016, hence the current reading of less than 80 miles. Unknown actual mileage. Less than 300 miles have been driven per year and regular service has ensured its longevity. The convertible top is in very good condition as well and comes with all the side curtains. Never driven in the rain and the wipers are currently disconnected as the switching assembly does not turn off. Niles is also an award winning car, taking first and second place in the All British Field Meet in Portland, Oregon in 2014 and 2015! One of only 9,600 built of the TF series production. Many many extra hard to find parts are also included including a King Dick jack and complete assembly, restored starting crank, new master brake cylinder, tonneau bars, new radiator fan, restored heater assembly, restored generator, starter straps, NOS ignition switch, NOS oil temperature gauge, tappet and valve cover gasket, driving light relays, rebuilt generator, distributor, starter and NOS generator end plate. Lots more extras are included and outlined in the photos.
