Pavilion Gardens | Buxton, Derbyshire 20000 - 24000 Registration No: JF 5278 Chassis No: J3589 MOT: Exempt � Fitted with a highly-developed supercharged racing engine � Subject to a complete body overhaul in the 1990s � Well known for its racing history at VSCC and MG Car Club events � Supplied with a comprehensive photographic history file documenting the vendor's 44 year ownership Derived from the M-Type, the J-Type was produced from 1932 to 1934 with the majority being to J2 two-seater specification of which just 2,083 examples were built. Representing outstanding value at under �200, the Midget's 847cc, overhead-camshaft, Wolseley-derived engine was coupled to a four-speed gearbox and housed in a simple D-Type chassis frame with half-elliptic springing all round and solid front and rear axles and braking by cable-operated 8-inch drums. Its race-bred pedigree and classic sporting appearance made the J2 extremely popular in period, before the J-Type model range was superseded by the PA, and they remain highly sought after by collectors today.
