Oh Ye of the Pencils(Ray McCready),
I'll not say I am thirding (or fourthing)it, but I had at least two sources back ten years ago. I will try to research my files for them. There is one in Australia also. I loaned my patterns to a man in New Zealand who had a body made. Maybe you could contact him as he probably would have made copies for his use. I had one guy somewhere near Nashville as I remember. Mike Allison also gave me a source. The sheet metal parts that are missing can be purchased from Mike Dowling of Sport and Vintage in England(well packaged for shipping by "Professionals"). The side panels COULD be made by a hot rodder shop who do louvers, rather than get them from England, although I was highly pleased with MIkes panels and you have the new wings and bonnet panels from him..............I thought his prices were competitive, and the time to get them was quick.

Steve did a super job on my new PA body, made some excellent rear wings and
did an very good job of salvaging some new but imperfect front wings for me
- all this back in 2001.

Hello all,
Do any of you have a recommendation as to who I might contact to have a MG M
type body built? I have talked to Craig Seabrook, but T cars are his
business
and he is not that hot on the project.
I suspect that I could do the work, but time may be a limiting factor with
my
(no) days off.....
Best,
Ray
