Seller's comments about 1938' MG T-Type
Imperial War Museum | Duxford, Cambridgeshire
Viewing: Tues 8th April from 12pm
Auction: Wed 9th April from 9am
Location: IWM Duxford Airfield, Cambridge CB22 4QR1938 MG TA
Estimate
£16, 000 - £20, 000 Registration No: GPH 152
Chassis No: TA 2302
MOT: Exempt
Subject to a comprehensive body and mechanical overhaul by the current owner
Offered with an extensive history file dating back to 1945
Fitted with a Volkswagen steering box
The first of the famous MG T-series line, the TA was introduced in 1936. Larger, faster and more comfortable than its PB predecessor, the newcomer was powered by an MPJG 1292cc OHV engine that developed some 50bhp at 4, 800rpm. Allied to a four-speed manual transmission, it endowed the two-seater with a nigh-on 80mph top speed. Traditionalists may have decried the adoption of a less exotic powerplant, insulating rubber engine mounts and - after a while - synchromesh on 3rd and 4th gears but the TA had accounted for 3, 003 sales by the time production ceased in 1939.
