From the ’30s to the ’50s, MG was undoubtedly excelled in the sports car arena. Their simple yet engaging T-Type models offered motorsports-winning pedigree to a broad audience and were distinct in their style. The MG TD was the fourth iteration of the T-Type chassis, which started with the TD. While the car’s lineage was still unmistakable, the Midget adopted a more sophisticated approach to the drivetrain. This includes the hypoid-geared rear axle of the MG Y-Type and independent front suspension. Our featured car is a 1952 MG TD Roadster Replica, which has been painstakingly recreated to offer an idea of what the original car would have looked like. Being a relatively modern reincarnation, this replica has reportedly run just 20,000 miles.
The design of the MG TD was an evolution of the series, which started in the 1930s with the introduction of the MG TA. It features a prominent grille with vertical slats that display an “England” crest and British flag, along with a period-style Royal Automobile Club badge. Atop the grille is a vintage-style thermometer. The TD features an off-white exterior, chrome-rimmed light pods, separate fenders, and running boards. It also has auxiliary driving lights and a yellow-colored fog lamp. The long hood provides access to a front-mounted trunk and gas tank. The wheels on the MG replica are 15-inch wire spoke rims with knock-off hubs. They’re wrapped in Classic Radial LL800 all-season tires. The interior is trimmed in tan and brown material and features a small-diameter steering wheel. There’s seating for two, with lap belts provided for safety. The dashboard is designed to mimic that of the original car, featuring the MG’s distinctive “twin bubble” layout and with gauges to monitor engine temperature, fuel level, battery amperage, speed, and rpm.
The engine of this 1952 MG TD Replica is a 1.3-liter four-cylinder motor that appears to be an air-cooled flat-four from a Volkswagen Beetle. The owner reports that all maintenance has been kept up to date, and that the car features a four-speed manual transmission, independent front suspension, and leaf-spring rear suspension.
The MG T-Type is a series of two-seater classic car produced from 1936 through 1955. This particular 1955 MG TD Roadster is one of the last of them, well-preserved by the previous owner. Although it might not seem so, the TD Roadster was a sports car of the time. The TD was specifically praised for its upgraded suspension setup and ride quality, over its previous generations. It was exclusively offered as an open-top machine with a single powertrain combination. The current owner of this particular car reports that it has been in their family for around 9–10 years. If you’re seeking a classic car in good condition or the TD Roadster in particular, this one is an impressive proposition to consider.

American automotive ethos often revolves around muscle, size, and sheer power. The mantra is usually "bigger is better," both in terms of physical dimensions and engine displacement. However, across the pond, the British took a completely different approach for decades. The 1953 MG TD standing before you is the epitome of this British philosophy – a dainty two-seater with an engine smaller than a Coke bottle. Despite its diminutive size, it's now on the market, offering enthusiasts the chance to unravel the charm of British roadsters and understand why these petite marvels have garnered global admiration, even in the vast expanses of America.
For us Americans, the idea of sporty driving means large vehicles with massive V8s and at least 300 horses waiting to be unleashed. Across the Atlantic in the United Kingdom, things were rather different in the ʼ60s, ʼ70s and ʼ80s. There, a sports car was a little thing, often no larger than a compact car, often sporting a four-cylinder engine under the hood. Enter the world of the British Roadster – open-topped machines with modest power figures and low kerb weights. This 1977 MG MGB Mark IV Roadster is a prime example of a ʼ70s British Roadster and it’s for sale by its original owner right now. The car boasts a host of new parts, a rebuilt engine, and up-to-date servicing. What more could you ask for?

The MG Midget is a legendary British automobile and is largely responsible for popularising the concept of affordable yet fun sports cars that could be enjoyed by anyone. The MG Midget was closely related to the second-gen Austin-Healey Sprite with improved interior trim and some other small styling changes. Our featured car is a MKII, 1966 MG Midget Convertible. The MKII offered upgrades such as wind-up windows, external door handles, and an extra 3bhp. While the numbers may not sound all that impressive — with a 1,100cc engine and a quoted 56 hp when new — the MG Midget is much more than the pursuit of power. It’s an ode to fun, and we almost guarantee that you’ll have more enjoyment at 50 mph in this Midget than in a supercar at 150 mph.
The perfect blend of a unique ownership experience and turning heads as you drive by sums up a muscle car ownership experience. Present today is one of the muscle car greats and takes shape with this 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu. With a reported 59,285 miles on the clock, this muscular machine is a great way to clock in those memorable drives and up your driveway game.
Oldsmobile introduced the Toronado in 1965 as their personal luxury car contender. What made the Toronado most distinctive was not its styling or land yacht proportions, but the fact that it was front-wheel drive! Yes, this was probably one of a handful of V8 front-wheel drive cars around at the time. What a curious decision by General Motors, and you can discover their curio right here with this 20,197-mile 1985 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham that we’ve got for sale. Currently relaxing in Grand Prairie, Texas, this all-original restored car awaits a new owner, which might very well be you, dear reader!
Widely popularized for its role in Smokey and the Bandit, the second-generation Pontiac Firebird is well regarded as a solid ’70s American classic. Never mind that the Malaise Era was in full swing, squeezing those V8s into abysmally low power outputs, there are plenty of avenues today to bring these cars back up to respectable power figures. Therefore, if you’re the kind who likes classic Firebirds, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a fantastic find. It’s got a large V8 under the hood and comes bearing just 28,691 miles to its name. So don’t dilly-dally; pick up this Lubbock, Texas-based muscle car before someone else does.
