Well, one supposes if the owner wished to create a hearse, then he (Or she) has succeeded.

That MGA has been photoshopped: note the steering wheel in the back window and the two yellow sleeves... |

Re Riley 1.5/Wolseley 1500.......
Rear side windows promise to be a different shape on each side.
'Shopping' is a wonderful black art that is quite beyond me, but I wonder why so many artist' miss the obvious! |

10/10 - it was actually built that way as a styling exercise for a possible estate version. _________________ David

Hi
I have wondered about the possibility of making an MGA E utilising the roof and rear of an A40 Farina, must be countryman version.
I know the photoshopping is atrocious, it's just give you an idea what I mean.
