'F' types were modified even
in their brief production run and,
with hand
craftsmanship and varied parts suppliers, cars are
not all identical. MG even approved of and fitted later parts.

In a
'bespoke' era, customers could order cars to their own
requirements
(at a price) and, apart from bodywork from
specialist coachbuilders, items such as extra instruments
and colour-schemes were available |

MG's experiments
with superchargers led to the 'K' type
engine with its cross-flow head and smaller capacity to fit
within the 1100cc class for racing, but some owners have
followed suit
and fitted superchargers themselves. |
 |
Down the years, various engine replacements have
been tried
- from American V8s to Coventry-Climax,
but the preferred
choice nowadays seems to be
the 'N' type MG. Of course
such changes necessitate modifications
to brakes etc. |
 |
'F' types have been modified
in many ways and fitted with
independent suspension and bodies from other makes!
Period
parts have even been discarded because 'wiseacres'
thought all
MGs should look the same! Vive la différance...! |
