1930 MG M-Type Midget Boattail Roadster

1930 MG M-Type Midget Navigation
This car was built in February of 1930, a month after the MG factory in Abingdon began production. Joseph Leiter, of Chicago fame, purchased the car in February, as seen in factory work orders, drove the car in Germany and returned to England in June. He then shipped the car to the United States in July of 1930. Edsel Ford, one of Joseph's partners in the first airmail service to Chicago, purchased an M-Type during the same month which was also shipped to the United States.

This car was professionally restored and features a fabric body covered in grey rexine leather cloth as original. As documented, the engine, distributor, starter, dynamotor, and radiator are all original to the car.

No auction information available for this vehicle at this time.
