Available at The 1937 MG TA
Correct MPJG engine, matching numbers
A wonderfully usable pre-war MG, offered here with its correct MPJG engine and presented as a well documented, carefully maintained example.
Introduced in 1936, the MG TA marked the beginning of the all new T Series, replacing the earlier P Type Midget. With its 1292cc overhead valve engine, the TA was a more refined and capable car, offering improved comfort and a roomier cockpit while retaining the engaging character that defines these early MGs. Hydraulic brakes further enhanced usability, making the TA an appealing proposition both then and now.
Just 3, 003 examples were produced up to 1939.
Originally registered in Bournemouth to a Mr Gurney, the car later resurfaced in Edinburgh in 1969 as a restoration project. It was subsequently acquired by Ken West of West Cheshire Restorations, who undertook the restoration work.
In 2006, the present owner purchased the MG in part completed condition, with the agreement that West Cheshire Restorations would finish the restoration. The result is a matching numbers example, recorded on the MG Car Club T Type Register and retaining its original MPJG engine.
During current ownership, the car has been maintained by Paul Myatt of G H Myatt Limited, with sensible improvements and regular servicing. Works include Alfin brake drums, crack testing of the engine, heat shielding, attention to the fuel system, oil warning light installation, and ongoing mechanical checks.
Used sparingly, the car runs well and has been enjoyed on a number of events, including visits to Pre War Prescott and touring in Norfolk.
This is an honest and very usable example of the MG TA, offering straightforward pre-war motoring and ready to be enjoyed.
