MGTC Special 1947

Engine No: XPAG9469

Chassis No: 2640

Trim: Red

Colour: Red

Mods & History :

The car was raced Woodside 1948, Fishermans Bend 1949, Nurioopta 1950.
Since 1986 the car has competed in 93 competition events and has 30 outright or class wins, with 26 seconds and 17 third placings. The performance, while just below Bob's supercharged car, is quite startling for a normally aspirated 1366cc engine - due to the car's light weight and Bob's superb skills in engine and chassis preparation. In the past the circuits of Winton, Phillip Island and Adelaide International Raceway saw her in action. Mallala and Collingrove have been good to the little red car and continue to be her most common playgrounds, but in 2004 Sandown and Rob Roy were also visited to good effect. Has lapped Mallala in 1:27s and Collingrove in the 37s.Australian Hillclimb Class Champion 1998/1999
Approx BHP: 80
Top Speed: 120mph
