Further Info:
This highly-attractive MG was one of the last of c.2000 PA models produced. Believed to have featured its 939cc PB engine from birth, it was sold new by Joseph Cockshoot & Co of Manchester and first registered in January 1936. Little further is known until `BXJ 508' was discovered in a dilapidated state by former MG racer and renowned racing scrutineer Mike Garton, who treated it to a ground-up restoration. When acquired by the vendor in 2013 it was again in need of considerable attention. He had the engine overhauled by Richard Parker Race Engines and a replacement block equipped with Phoenix steel crankshaft and connecting rods and Cosworth racing pistons. A new bulkhead, wings and dashboard were installed and fresh alloy body created. The brakes, wiring, dampers and weather equipment were all renewed and the brightwork refurbished. The MG is once again resplendent in Black complemented by a Red leather interior.
