[Mg-mmm] Fw: [mg-tabc] Jarvis Midget (Not TA, B or C content)

[Peter Green]

David,

You mention that the Jarvis bodied car was a Midget (4 cylinder) but then go
on to say that you do not know if it was a 4 or 6 cylinder car. If it was a 6
cylinder car it could have been a Jarvis bodied F type Magna (6 cylinder).

  Dear Mike & David:

  I just posted your appeal for help to the Vintage Minor Register
  forum.  As many of its members have OHC Morris Minors and MG M-types,
  maybe there is someone that can help in your search.
