This classic with British red exterior and black and tan interior was fully and BEAUTIFULLY RESTORED around 2015.  And great care was given to retain the ORIGINAL ENGINE and TRANSMISSION in this amazing sports car, as verified by the “dumb iron” which is stamped “TD24770”, matching the Car and Engine plate stamp of “Car No. TD / 24770”.  The original XPAG in-line-four engine is fitted with the original twin SU H2 carburetors.  This particular TD is one of the few which are colloquially referred to as the “TD2” because it was made with a larger clutch, larger ring gear, and larger starter than supplied on the earlier TDs.  This classic starts easily and runs solidly and is great for cruising around town.  The four-speed transmission shifts easily with the original synchromesh working cleanly.  The shift lever does not jump out of gear or cause “gear chatter” as is often the case with the earlier TCs and TDs.  The clutch operates smoothly and easily.  The brake will lock all four wheels for great stopping power.  This beautiful car has been garaged since its restoration and has ZERO rust - anywhere!  The carburetors were professionally restored by Joe Curto in 2021.  The last engine rebuild is unknown, but it runs cleanly and does not burn oil.  Top speed is advertised to be 78 MPH, but has never been driven over 45 MPH since acquired by this owner in 2018.  A compression test in 2018 showed values of 80, 110, 80, 100 for cylinders 1 – 4, respectively.  And this rare beauty features equally rare wire wheels and a heater (both professionally installed by the original owner as “after-market” upgrades not available from the factory for cars shipped to the US).  Under the distributor cap, the ignition system has been upgraded to the Pertronix electronic ignition system which is far superior and more reliable than the original “points and condenser” system, but a new set of points and condenser are in the glove box to restore the ignition system to original, if desired.  This open-air beauty comes with the black soft top with all side curtains.  Classic-style (aviator style) lap and shoulder belts were installed to be used, if desired (but not legally required because the car was not originally equipped with them).  The dash is a beautiful burled walnut.  The oil filter has been converted to the “spin on” style for easy oil changes and the oil pressure reads a steady 65 psi while at or over 2,000 RPMs.  The engine never over-heats, even when it was being driven for a couple of years in the Arizona summer sun.  A Clean Idaho title will be provided to the purchaser.
