Tell Mark my first car was a '62 Triumph Spitfire. Rag-top, British racing green with black interior. I had to sew two NY phone books inside a sleeve to see out over the dash to drive it! Giggle

We put it up in the yard for the winter and was going to restore it to complete original but the little neighborhood hoodlums totally destroyed the car. They tore every piece off and out of the thing before my neighbor got out to shoo them off. We had no garage or fence as it was an apartment off the house rental. That was a fun little car. We traded it for a paint job of the trim of some guy's house. We saw the car in the driveway and my ex knocked on the door and asked if he wanted to trade paint for the car.

Oh and as for suing for "trades description" - I don't think that's even done here. For all I know, that car could have been sold as an MG here back then.

Oh dear Shok That is not an MG Ok
If he bought as one then someone needs to sue for trades description. The badge on the grille is wrong, the mirrors and indicators (on the wheel wing) are the main clue.
I'll get Mark to find an MG from the '30s to compare.

Mark has just pointed out the obvious Doh
The cream MG in the next picture says it all!
The grille badge is LF too.

Tell him to find a 53 as both of them claim to be 1953 not from the 1930's.
