MG TD TF 1500 - Abingdon Photos

OK, I know it isn't for the T series, but very interesting factory photos from another site and I thought some might enjoy it. Sorry if it's been shown here before. PJ

Amazing to see a human being actually painting a car. That doesn't happen anymore...

I drove past Abingdon just this morning and snapped this picture. Abingdon Spares, that is.

I actually spent two years living in Abingdon in the early 60's when the factory was still open. Went by it on the bus every day...

I think the guy with the spray gun is applying a protective wax coat as the car is complete and not masked off. The cars that are masked off seem to be for rectification work, fixing scratches etc.

The engines with the red valve covers are 1500cc Triumph Spitfire engines for US bound rubber bumper Midgets.
