1935 MG PA

Cecil Kimber was the man behind MG. In the mid-1920s, as general manager of Morris Garage of Oxford, England, he began modifying Morris cars for a motoring clientele anxious for more than the staid and practical. His cars became the epitome of the stereotypical British sports car. Produced in 1934-35, the PA preceded the iconic T-Series of roadsters so well-known today. Its small 847cc 4-cylinder single overhead cam engine producing 36 horsepower in standard guise. Three factory-backed PAs managed by George Eyston, competed at the 24 Hours of LeMans in 1935. Known as the 'Dancing Daughters,' this pioneering all-female team finished the race in 23, 24, and 25th positions.
