1933 MG J2

1933 MG J2

Approximately 2000 of these were built in 1933 and cost $300.00. All of them were right hand drive as they were not exported to the US.

The 4 speed non-synchromesh transmission requires double clutching of each gear to shift and drum brakes are all operated by cables from the pedal mechanism. The chassis is lubricated from fittings easily accessible in the engine compartment connected by copper tubing to each joint.

With 34 horsepower it can reach 50MPH in 15 seconds and has a top speed of 80MPH.

Taken at the Hilton Head Island Concours d'Elegance & Motoring Festival.
