Thanks again for the 'movies.'

Enjoyed the movies. I've been an MG lover for many year, even racing one in my younger days. They got badly dated before the end, but never lost their charm.

The MG streamlines shown rely on what we now know to be near perfect streamlining and are beautiful to behold. Thanks for the fine!

i had a 1976 Midget. i wish i didn't sell it.
i want my next car to be a delorean, but an MG is more attainable. especially in excellent condition.

Excellent aero work.

Bonneville is the ultimate arbiter of automotive aerodynamics. That's why I think we should look to top speed racers for ideas. They've been working aero for decades.

...sounds too familiar: I had a 1965 Midget, the first year with rollup windows, bought it in Newfoundland. I, too, wish I hadn't sold it.

The MG B was "styled" by chopping both ends off a streamliner.

That's got me thinking about chopping the top and lowering the driver's position, skirting all four wheels and putting a boat tail on the Saturn.
