MG MGA - Unknown hardtop

Does anyone have information on this hardtop? I only have the pictures, nothing more

I am guessing it must be a custom build as the script on the side is a swiss company . see next post

this is the info on the coach builder with a reference to the hardtop in the photo in 1960

43k USD : BTW that's a fairly standard asking price for an MGA here..... but not for one that is in the unfinished state this one is.

I have never seen that style of hardtop before Dominic but I really like it.
I think it looks great on the MGA, possibly the best looking one I have seen.

I'm looking forward to finding out more about it.

Agreed. Also impressed with the Jaeger Km/hr Speedo.
Are these standard in EU? Or available?

Dominic,
Is that a flash to pass relay on the firewall? If so, it would be the second picture I have seen of the relay there, although this one is at 90� to the other.

Regards,

Hi Mark

Don't think so as it has only three terminals and the FTP uses a four terminal relay. The dash seems to have a lot of extra switches so maybe something is switched through the relay
