1937 MG VA for sale
Current customer rating: (261 votes ) based onThe MG VA. or MG
1½-litre as it was originally marketed was produced between
February 1937 and September 1939 and was the smallest of the three
sports saloons they produced in the late 1930s. the others being
the SA and WA. It used a tuned version of the push-rod. overhead
valve four-cylinder Morris TPBG type engine and had twin SU
carburettors developing 54bhp at 4500rpm. Drive was to the live
rear axle via a four-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the
top three ratios. although on some early cars it was only on the
top two speeds. Nineteen-inch wire wheels were fitted and the 10"
drum brakes were hydraulically operated using a Lockheed system.
In-built hydraulic jacks were standard. Suspension was by
half-elliptic springs all round with a live rear axle and beam
front axle. Luvax shock absorbers were fitted. the rear ones
adjustable from the dashboard. The British Motor magazine tested a
VA tourer which reached a top speed of just over 76mph and a
0-50mph time of 15. 8 seconds. With the windscreen folded down the
top speed increased to a heady 82mph.
This charming
example has undergone a full nut and bolt restoration by the
previous owner with just 5. 00 miles travelled in the intervening
period. It presents with a Double Duck hood with side screens and
tonneau cover and has recently had over £3. 00 spent on a brake
overhaul.
There is a vast
amount of documentation relating to its history and restoration
and. when resting. resides in a fully air conditioned garage; as a
result. according to the owner. she starts and runs very well
indeed.
