Lot 30
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.
