A 1936 MG TA, registration number JV 4917, chassis number TA 0291, engine number MPJM 39011, Teal blue. MG TA was the first of the series of MG sports cars. They would subsequently be a continued development of the sports car through B, C, D and the final F model, and they certainly captured the essence of the British sports car look, earning Britain much needed export funds in the process. This TA has been extensively rebuilt by the previous and current owner. In 2005 the body was fully rebuilt with a new ash frame and re-sprayed in a non original but very attractive Teal blue (receipts and notes on file). In more recent times (2013), the engine has been rebuilt by Colin Groom, with a new crankshaft. The rebuild has its own file of receipts and notes with photographs. There are numerous other receipts of spare parts and works carried out relating to a full and comprehensive rebuild. Now resplendent in Teal blue with tan weather gear and interior, this beautifully rebuilt TA comes to auction with two files of history, the first having receipts and information from 1966 to the present day, and the other covering the engine. The MG is now only for sale due to a recent lack of use and the vendor believing that the MG deserves using more than he can currently justify.

A 1933 MG J2 Midget, registration number ALX 603, chassis number J23658, engine number 2585AJ, blue. Following on from the successful M-Type the two seater J2 would establish the classic MG look of Abingdons sports cars into the 1950s. With its deep cut away doors, fold flat windscreen and fixed cycle type wings they epitomised the British sports car look. The new J2 featured the Wolseley derived 847cc overhead camshaft engine coupled to a four speed gearbox installed in a simple chassis frame equipped with 8 inch diameter brakes. By the standards of the day, handling and performance were perceived to be exemplary, and they endowed the MG with an exhilarating top speed of 65 mph. ALX 603 is an extremely original example of the model, having been in the vendor's possession for over 40 years it oozes originality. The body work is finished in light blue and has a delightful patination which cannot be replicated. The interior has an aluminium dashboard with complementary black seating. Our vendor advises us that the original engine has been rebuilt with a Phoenix crankshaft. He further advises that he feels that the MG now needs tidying up but I for one think that the MG should be preserved as much as possible. Coming to the market for the first time in over four decades. ***There is no history file to accompany the car.*** V5C, MOT and tax exempt See illustrations
