First gear….
Dumb questions 101…
Hi all,
New to forum, so go gently. As a new “accidental” PA project owner, I was wondering what the correct trafficators were typically fitted to the early PA’s?
Your patience and cooperation will be greatly appreciated!
HH

Lucas SF24 or SF28, but good luck finding or affording them.

Were any PAs fitted with trafficators ? I thought they did not arrive until the PB was produced.

If it helps, for many the M.G. Workshop Manual by W.E.Blower is a 'bible', and the Wiring Diagrams section shows that all P Types had trafficators.

Also, Malcolm Green's M.G. Road Cars - Volume One - Four Cylinder O.H.C. 1929-1936, shows their fitment on P Types.

SF24 and SF28 were and are really quite fragile devices, easily caught and snapped. I remember my father saying he had to replace one on MG3880 back in the 40s.

Cheers all,
I am hoping mine will turn up as there is still a lot of parts from the collection my car came from that needs going through.
