TC 1733 was imported from the UK in the 70's by George Felbin (PA), sold to to Mark Smith shortly after (PA and VA). Eventually to L. Scott Pedersen (PA) and then to John Bowyer of Spring, Texas in 2017. Car was badly represented and had the replacement engine, body rusted, rotted wood and needs an extreme rebuild. Still has the BMC and MOWOG stickers on the gold valve cover. Has body from TC 7499.

TC 7474 EXU was purchased in San Francisco, January 1974 from Gerald Andelin. A previous owner to that was R. F. Dowler in the bay area. Has a dual spare tyre carrier, and is in show condition. John has a letter from MG in Abingdon (when it was still open) stating that the TC was finished on January 7, 1949. However the build date is December 23, 1948 so some conflict information. Not sure what "Finished" means. It was titled in California when John bought it as a 1950 but John got that changed to 1949.

Sold May 2010 as parts on eBay in New York for $14,750. Ad stated: "Abandoned in storage garage, Complete car, TD/TF engine, modified dash. No title or bill of sale available." Engine listed as XPAG 7332 (TD/TF) and color as Black / Red.

Sold on eBay in July 2018 by George Thomas of Georgia, USA. Ad stated: "Stripped rolling body, all EXU components removed, no engine or transmission." John Bowyer of Spring, Texas purchased from Thomas. eBay ad on 26 May 2018 showed car as rolling chassis/tub in rough shape. Missing headlights, engine, steering wheel, many other parts. Stored many years. Color at the time was Black / Red. Purchased by Bowyer as a parts car. Body removed and placed onto TC 1733. Replacement body later sourced from California when it was decided to restore rather than part out 7499.

History by John Bowyer:
At one time it was listed as a chassis only in Australia.
2022 - I purchased a lot of MG TC parts including the frame, body tub, running boards, and rear fenders from Charles Wiggins in Liberty, TX. No engine, transmission or rear end. No title. The previous owner, a crop duster, was going to build the car for his wife, but gave up. I used the running boards and rear fenders on TC 7499. I used some of the front suspension parts on Georgia’s TC. The body tub and doors appear to be new. The rusty rear fenders are from TC 1733. The one front fender is from the Bill Jones part auctions.
I bought a rear end housing and added axles and rear wheels.
No title. Charles bought it from Freddy Fatherly. Freddy was a crop duster. He intended to restore if for his wife. Charles said that his wife was a large woman and probably would not have fit in the car.
The build date was 11/08/1949 with engine XPAG 10064.
There was yellow paint on the frame, shocks, and brake drums. Even the inside of the brake drums had yellow paint. MG did this for some show cars, but this sems too late in the production to be in a car show.
