A little clue to Bryan's question

"What was the name of the company who built the bodies for the MGF, and the one for the TF?"



Be careful things change with time :yesnod:

Good luck

Mayflower Vehicle Systems of Coventry which became part of Stadco Castle Bromwich and Stadco Coventry in 2004 following Mayflower's collapse.

For a complete answer, though, later TF bodies were also made in Nanjing.

The father was one of the senior engineers involved in the development of the revolutionary MG1100 with Hydro-elastic suspension in 1962 (50 yrs ago this year).
The son was one of the senior engineers involved in the development of the MGF with its hydra-gas suspension.

Can anyone name the father and son?

Thanks

We are still owed a question from Luckymarine (pm) sent.

Think I'm going to have to add a proviso that you have to have a question prepared before you answer a question :thumbsup: , unfortunately half the time I log on we're waiting for someone to post a question :rant:

So if there is no new question by the time you log on Tsleight, please do the honours :yesnod:
