Team,
A couple years ago a gentleman named Alex posted a status of a beautiful little MGM restoration. What was more impressive was that is seemed to be carried out while attending Univeristy... and the quality of work seemed outstanding. I was so impressed, I saved away some posted photos under Alex's name on my hard drive. Today I happened upon those in-progress photos and wondered what the current status might be. I suspect, given the drive and vividly apparent capability of the owner, that this little car may be a concours winner by now! Alex, are you still out there? How is that little M doing?
Regards, Tom

Alex's car was first registered with us many years ago (chassis number 2M 1835 Register Number 901). I think Ian Lobb owned it at the time. I have Alex as the current owner but no photos so if you can copy me a couple they'd be useful for the archive.
I'll try to contact Alex and draw his attention to your forum entry.
Cheers.

Hi Tom, Bob and all,
Sorry I didn't reply to this earlier - I have, to my (and others') surprise, sold the car. I bought it hoping to take it on rallies and the like, and then found once I'd finished the car that I just didn't have the time to compete in it any more. It has gone up to Scotland, to a gentleman from Aberdeen... For the forseeable, I'm down to just my everyday 'modern' car (an early-60s 2-stroke Saab)
The last I saw of the midget, it was doing very nicely, finally behaving reliably... I'm still at university, but now doing a PhD, so the long holidays have gone!
Regards,
Alex |

Alex,
sorry to hear the car has moved to another owner.
Would love to see photos of the final product!
Congrats, though, on having finished it.
