Now this is cool! - Don's restored 1935 MG PA

Don Bonar brought his wonderful, immaculately restored MG P-type to the BritishV8 meet in Omaha. How could I not photograph such a cool car? Then, what should I do with the photos? With Don's help, I pieced together an article. I hope you all enjoy it. Please share it with your friends. (It's yet more bait to get purists into the habit of visiting our website!)

Here's the link: "Ruby": Don Bonar's 1935 MG PA Midget (63 photos and informative captions)

(Cool factoid: this water pump was optional equipment! In 1935 money, it cost just £1 60p.)



Want me to keep taking photos? Reader contributions fund critical supplies such as camera batteries, memory cards, etc.

And an extremely fun car to drive as well. If slightly unconventional. Of course some drivers have trouble with curbs.
