Ooh, I really like that.

I can’t decide whether the grille is too wide or too tall but it still works well for it.

it has a strange stubbiness to it, but I don’t hate it.

I think if the grille was narrower it would be on a par with a Lancia B24 Aurelia.

Just found this on the other variants of the MG TD.

The OPs MGTD from the rear.

Looks great from the rear.

You dear boy have lead me to a rabbit warren of which there is no escape.

While looking for further information on the car you posted I’ve come across this web site that I can’t seem to come away from.

http://www.mg-cars.org.uk/mgtd/index.html

I mean, this page on the M.G. name itself with a letter from Mr Kimber himself and reference to his daughter, Mrs Cook is a marvelous piece of history.

I’m not working on Wednesday night so I’ll get several bottles or cans of Old Speckled Hen and read the website in it’s entirety.

Cheers mate.

Off to renew my license now, but soon I’ll dig in. Maybe try a dram of Rock Oyster while I do.

The other night I tried Auchentoshan. Very, very good. More complex and richer than I imagined. This was a good thing. I’ve also since remembered that I have actually had a Lowland whisky. Glenkinchie (of course). Forgettable. ;-)x
