1956 MG Magnette ZA daily driver:

one of the guy's in my car club has really done a number on this stately old beauty.
daily driver upgrades:
Rover V8 3.9L (replacing the blown 1.5L 4cyl)
A/C
disc brakes all around
automatic trans.

does all the work himself, including the paint.

So,so, pretty

I always liked the looks of these. One of the better looking British cars of the period and much better looking than the earlier version.

Used to be a guy that worked in same building as me who had a black one.

After all that, how much more work to move the B-pillar back, extend the front doors and make a 2-door out of it?

There's a fellow on another MG forum who is doing just that. An interesting thread to read. Short answer, a LOT more work. :grin:
