History of Car and any work or modifications carried out: I bought the car as a mechanically together car that looked ok at a distance, but not too tidy close up! The idea was to start hill climbing and sprinting with it in the MG Car Club championship as a standard car, and use for road runs etc. The car had been completely rebuilt and repainted some years ago, but not used much since. It soon became apparent that all of the suspension and brakes needed replacing, not least the tyres. Fortunately the engine and transmission have proved to be in a good state. Sorting out the car has been an ongoing job, and has been brilliant fun to use.
