MG PA History:
The MG PA model is considered by many to be the quintessential pre-war Midget.1 When introduced in early 1934, its most important new feature was a three-main- bearing crankshaft. Compared to the previous (two-main-bearing) MG 4-cylinder engines, the new engines were much more robust and also much smoother running. There were other changes too: longer wheelbase, enlarged cockpit, greatly enlarged brake drums. Styling was refined too.
Many enthusiasts consider the MG P- type the purest expression of classic MG styling.
The PA proved itself competitive in amateur racing, trials, and hillclimbs. A few P- types competed in high profile events. Most famously, George Eyston's Dancing Daughters were a six- woman racing team who drove three P-types in the 1935 24 Hours of Le Mans.2 They raised quite a sensation, though they only finished 24th, 25th, and 26th place overall. Approaching Le Mans as an endurance trial rather than a race, the team's goal was to achieve absolutely consistent lap times - fast, but not so fast that they might break. The MG team achieved an average speed of over 53mph. The three car effort only required exactly one replacement part: a tail lamp bulb!
The MG PA model was produced from (about) March 1934 until late summer of 1935. 1973 cars of this type were built. No more than 150 MG PA sports cars remain in existence.
