MG TD TF 1500 - Car Show - Local

Went to a show Saturday with over 200 cars on display, all American but two, my MG and a German BMW. Judging was by concurs qualified independent judges, paid by the club to judge the cars. Cars were put in age groups and judged per group. The TF was put in the 1947 to 1956 group. Totally set back, when the winners were called, I was given this. Sometimes it pays to just drop in! PJ

Good going over there in NE Oklahoma, Paul! I remember a few years ago you were looking for nearby clubs and events. If you are now in a club, please send me that website. Ours is memphisbritishcars.org
Thanks, Jerry

For some reason under florescent lighting and camera setting, the engine paint turns Orange looking, it's actually much closer to the original Red color. PJ

I kinda like the orange color. It IS British after all. They had some strange stuff going on back then.

John Cleese was once asked why British food sucked. His answer: "We had an empire to run!"

Paul,

Very well deserved, your TF is simply stunning

They also came close to matching the TF's body color with the color of the trophy. ;-)

To my knowledge, the only points knocked off were for the body colors, had it been MG Red (C)??
