This number has a transposed digit. It is probably GHDL 91137. It is a 1600.
Probably built in March of 1960.

This is a 1500 Roadster, MGA no. 63255. It was originally painted Old
English White, and was built around February or March of 1959.

Give Blake a cigar, this is an MGA 1500 engine probably built in early 1958.

Give Blake a light, this is an MGA 1500 engine number from late 1957.

This is MGA number 63227, a light blue 1500 roadster. This one is
interesting in that it is a litter mate of the second car on the list. Only
28 numbers separate them. They probably came over on the boat together.
Wonder if they've always been friends? It would be a shame to separate them
now. May they rust in peace.

Thanks to Clausager's Original MGA, and several years worth of impulsive
number collection.
