I’ve been thinking about doing this model for a long time. Susan gave me this chair for my new home office in the early ‘80s. She found it at an antique furniture auction in Warwickshire. Now, I felt that I had the tools and experience to take on the project.
When I was a kid I thought there was something magical about MG cars. I wanted to make a ¼ size replica and install a lawn-mower engine in it so I could drive it around in parking lots. Between 1936 and 1955 Morris/BMC made five models of the T-Type: TA, TB, TC, TD and TF. A few weeks ago, I pulled up at a traffic light next to an immaculate MG TC with the top down that provided the inspiration for this model.
