GreenGreen and BlackHonduras MaroonStellar BlueExperience a piece of automotive history with the classic 1934 MG PA, a remarkable vehicle that holds a significant place in the MG legacy. The MG PA represents the epitome of pre-war engineering and design, the last of MG’s cars powered by an overhead cam engine until the 1950s. This distinguished model allows enthusiasts to explore MG’s intricate history and engineering advancements. Notably, the PA upholds MG’s reputation for crafting affordable, high-performing sports cars well before and after World War II.
The 1934 MG PA is a two-seat sports car with a character all its own, featuring a four-speed gearbox requiring the engaging art of double clutching. A highlight of this vehicle is its substantial 12-inch drum brakes, mechanically operated with cables, a testament to the innovative engineering of its time. The generator, mounted vertically at the front of the engine, and the absence of a water pump, emphasize its unique design qualities, making it a desirable choice for collectors.
This MG PA has been meticulously maintained, showcasing an enduring older restoration with a paint finish and chrome work that reflect its well-preserved condition. The car remains rust-free, preserving its robust integrity. While this pre-war model does not include a top frame, top, or side curtains, it stands as an excellent representation of MG’s heritage. The seats, upholstered in vinyl, include a small, fabricated rear seat installed by a previous owner, offering potential for customization by the next connoisseur.
From a technical standpoint, the MG PA is powered by a 0.8-liter engine that starts and runs smoothly, delivering strong oil pressure and a gratifying driving experience. The vehicle retains its original features, save for a few personalizable elements such as a missing dash valve for the dual fuel lines and minor fitting absences in its central lubrication system.
History enthusiasts will appreciate that the MG PA is a collectible rarity, with only a couple of thousand originally produced and a mere few hundred remaining today. It carries a clean title, offering you an opportunity to own a noteworthy piece of the automotive heritage that defined a generation’s fascination with sporty, lightweight vehicles. Ideal for MG aficionados or anyone with an appreciation for vintage engineering, this MG PA invites you to be part of its enduring legacy.
