It's Alive Automotive is pleased to offer this classic 1934 MG PA
It's Alive Automotive is pleased to offer this classic 1934 MG PA. The PA is a very interesting and significant part of MG history. The P series cars (PA & PB) were the last of MG's overhead cam engine powered cars until the MGA twin cam of the 1950s. Clearly, one can see the resemblance to the iconic post-war MG TC that many casual U.S. fans may assume is where MG began. That's understandable since GIs who returned to the U.S. after WW2 learned of the appealing nature of small, light, sports cars during their service in England and brought a new market for these cars home with them to North America.
MG however, had a well-deserved reputation prior to the war for its line of affordable, good performing sporting vehicles. If you're new to pre-war MGs, then treat yourself to researching the history of this storied marque. If you're familiar with the MG pre-war line, you know the P series represented much improvement over its predecessors while retaining many design elements unique to pre-war cars. For the person with a serious interest in all things MG, owning a pre-war MG like the PA opens up a new dimension and context to the world of early sporting cars. For example, the four speed gearbox does not have synchromesh on any gear. To shift up or down, you will need to master the art of double clutching and matching rpms to the needed gear. Once learned, driving one of these is quite satisfying knowing that it's not something that just anyone can do without some practice. The PA's large 12” drum brakes are mechanically operated via cables. They work surprisingly well and pointing out the lack of a hydraulic system to your friends is always fun.
