Father & Son MG drives to Charterhouse
A 1933 MG J2 bought by the owner’s father new in 1933, whilst serving as an RAF pilot, is included in the Charterhouse auction of classic cars on Thursday 24th October.
“The son searched for many years to locate his late father’s MG and eventually found it in a Lincolnshire barn.” Commented Richard Bromell. “As a retired engineer, he undertook a nut and bolt restoration to restore the car to an as new condition just like the day his father bought it in 1933.”
1933 MG J2 in the Charterhouse classic car auction on 24th October £18,000 – 22,000
The MG was enjoyed by the owner’s father who had trips across Europe including driving around pre-war Germany. The car was subsequently sold and needing restoration was stored in a barn until the son tracked the car down nearly 20 years ago.
Sadly, now due to advancing years, the son of the first owner has decided to let a new family take ownership of his beloved MG J2 first bought by his father 91 years ago.
Charterhouse are now accepting further entries for this auction of classic cars being held at the prestigious Haynes Motor Museum on 24th October and for their next silver, jewellery & watch and Asian Art auctions.
