... fortunately I have just received old paper pictures of the J2693. If these are desired for the register, I can scan them individually and send them.

Yes please Robert.
You can of course put them in yourself, then all a registrar has to do is approve them.

1st picture:
Picture taken in spring 1966_MG senteret Nordenfjelds våren 1966_MG J2 with chassis no. J 2693 from Halvor Westgaard.
Is in the garden in front of the garage in Skovgård (approx. 6 km east of Trondheim / Norway).

2nd picture:
Picture taken between 1964 and February 1967_MG J2 by #8203;#8203;Halvor Westgaard U-16513


The J2 was built in England in 11.1932 and was exported to Norway as a new car.
Registration probably in 1933. The original color was green with green and later changed to white.
Unfortunately, the J2 was in poor condition and only around 25% of it was original (as of 1967). A complete restoration was necessary. The J2 was completely dismantled for restoration in 1971. 1977/1978 the J2693 was still disassembled. Current condition not known.

Halvor Westgaard was owned by the J2 from 1964 to February 1967
In February 1967 he sold his J2 to his colleague Bernt Johan Scheffler. The car was then registered again, but shortly afterwards the car was dismantled and a complete restoration began. I could not find out whether it was ever completed. Maybe a Triple-M member can give an answer here.

I am sorry Robert, you can post pictures of your own car to the Register, but not others.
My mistake.

Hi JohnE, you are welcome to make the entry from J2693. You have already uploaded my uploaded images to the registry database and to give everyone a view.


JohnE, for my F1 with the chassis number F1164 I was NOT given access to the register. I am registered with No. 1240. I would be pleased to be given the opportunity and assistance and to do this myself for my own car. If I need credentials, then please send them to me. I have over 50 old pictures on the F1164 that are not known to the register.
