Mg Does It Again (1957)

MMMM HOW YOUNG HE LOOKS STERLING MOSS, WELL GROOMED BRITISH MAN

[@MarcBrewer]

The anonymous “American Driver” in the film is future world champion Phil Hill

[@chadakoin1]

Wooden steering wheel mounted on a spike, drivers feet that also serve as front bumpers, no roll cage and a body made of Reynolds Wrap. It's all good!

[@jeffc8242]

A great piece of history!

1957 design: unadulterated automotive love

[@dereknelson3089]

That's Phil Hill, not just an, "American Driver". He's a racing legend, c'mon man.

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

But not when thus was filmed. IIRC He'd not drive his first F1 race until the following year.

[@chrisrumble2665]

I thought it was. I suppose at that time he wasn't so famous.

Interesting that the interior of the car was red at the factory but green in Bonneville?

@ 2:22 I'm a 69yr old Brit Did my City & Guilds Motor Vehicle @ Erith Tech col. Kent 1969-73 I came across machines in Main Dealer workshops covered in dust, And I always wondered, Dinosaur bones ???, It was great to see one of those Dinosur Bones in use by a Craftsman,

I love my MG

[@pushbikeman]

When MG was British and we were proud.

[@BruselskySluzebnik]

When Britain was not an Indian/ Nigerian slum full of unemployed people…. ahhh the good ol’ days. 👴🏻

The incidental music, at 9'48'' , is also to be heard on the 1950's ' Scotland Yard ' shorts, introduced by Edgar Lustgarten.

Happy Days

[@chriswalford4161]

In Britain, we look after our successful companies (irony, obviously)

[@loveofchem]

And we shall name it the "Flying Horseshoe Crab"

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

No, the Roaring Raindrop. It is British.

[@aureliobrighton1871]

2:58 unsurprisingly the wallpaper taste in any real garage has not changed since the wheel was invented in that other old cave. :) The thing itself looks remarkably like an early 917. Luckily they didn't have that kind of engine fire.

WHY DID EVERY ONE LOOK OLD IN THESE GREAT FILM S

[@Kidraver555]

Moss used polo crash hats.
