Roman Polanski (Rafal Zawierucha) and Sharon Tate's (Margot Robbie) green MG from Quentin Tarantino's Academy Award-winning comedy Once Upon a Time..in Hollywood. Polanski drove Tate, his wife, from their Cielo Drive home to the Playboy Mansion in his green MG. This car, a restored olive-green 1952 MG TD 5-speed, is fitted with a Datsun 1600 engine and transmission rebuilt in the 1980s. The British-made vehicle was considered a trendsetting piece in its day, and selected by Tarantino's team for use in the film as an homage to Jacques Demy's Model Shop. Its features include a black convertible top with red metal grilles and green leather interior, hardwood detailing, and vintage "midget"-size doors. The license plate was replaced after being rented into production, and the odometer reads "05376." This MG is in good overall condition with visible signs of use from production, including minor rusting and some scuffs to the paint and tires. Following production, it was registered "Non-op," though it remains operable. As this is a functioning vehicle, legal transfer of title will need to take place before delivery can be arranged. Transportation and shipping quotes, including fluid drainage for international shipping, should be arranged with Prop Store prior to bidding.
