Afraid not!

Experts?

Looks like an MGB GT with a bodykit of some sort.

Djetset · « **Reply #7 on:** August 12, 2009, 06:05:49 PM »

You are on the right track. Any more information?

gilescooperuk · « **Reply #8 on:** August 12, 2009, 06:14:13 PM »

Only in eliminating some of the more wellknown kits.

It is NOT a sebring or LE MANS body.

trying with a longnose MGB as raced by paddy hopkirk in 63

No sorry, none of those.

Costin?

Djetset · « **Reply #11 on:** August 17, 2009, 09:56:27 AM »

No, not Costin.

It's a '65 MGB with Fastnet bolt-on nose.

Looks very like the red car (number 37) in this link:

Which would make it a LeMans entry for MG?

Djetset · « **Reply #14 on:** September 02, 2009, 12:22:12 PM »

No, not a Le Mans-entered MG!

Djetset · « **Reply #15 on:** September 18, 2009, 03:36:09 PM »

Pros...

franck.kegelart · « **Reply #16 on:** September 20, 2009, 06:23:35 AM »

Is this John Milne Midget ?

franck.kegelart · « **Reply #17 on:** September 20, 2009, 06:27:49 AM »

Or the Jacobs Midget - the third Jacobs was built for John Milne and is known under his name...

Djetset · « **Reply #18 on:** September 20, 2009, 02:56:29 PM »

No, it's not one of those.

Oswald · « **Reply #19 on:** September 23, 2009, 10:48:22 AM »

I am still sure it's an MGB that was modified by a company named Fastnet.

Djetset · « **Reply #20 on:** September 28, 2009, 02:36:01 PM »

Well done Oswald, and sorry for the delay in awarding you a point; been away doing toher things for a while. This is indeed the Fastnet front-end for the MGB. Fastnet also offered a rear wrap-around spoiler and supercharger kits for MGBs.
