1938 MG TA Midget

This was one of the cars that took part in a vintage car run from Stockport to Matlock in July 1985 organised by car dealers Gordon Ford of Stockport.

It’s a 1938 MG TA, the first of the T-type Midgets, which replaced the MG PB in 1936 and has a 4-cylinder inline 1,292cc engine. It was succeeded by the TB in 1939 and the various T-type Midgets continued until the TF was superseded by the MGA in 1955.

Guernsey Classic Vehicle Club Show 24 June 2012

Here's some more photographs that I took of the cars on display at the 2012 show. I didn't note any details of the cars at the time so I'm relying on my knowledge of older cars (with a little help from Google searches) to say what the cars are.

The right-hand car's an Austin 7 from the mid-1930s, but I'm not too sure about the one on the left. It's a Morris, probably a Major, from the early 1930s.

This is obviously a Rolls Royce and I think the Twenty was the only one made with the horizontal radiator slats. It dates from the mid 1920s.

It's difficult to differentiate between some of the T-type MGs but I think that this is a TA, produced between 1936 and 1939. Bad composition - the bouncy castle is behind the MG, not on top of the roof!

The Humber Sceptre was produced between 1963 and 1976 and this is a Mk2 which was in production from 1965 to 1967.

Another MG, this time a Y-type, although whether it's a YA or YB I can't tell. The YA was made between 1947 and 1951 and the YB from 1951 to 1953.
