calling MCA owners!
« on: October 10, 2016, 02:18:47 PM »
not sure how many MCA owners are on here but im now in need of making a hood for my MCA which seems very difficult as upholsterers seems very few and far between and one wanting to make a hood from scratch is even more difficult....

so any MCA owners out there or anyone with photos of MCAs care to post some with the roofs up? just to see what it looks like

ive got nearly every magazine article or road test but sadly they all seem to be coupe models or roofs down

 I`ve only got one picture of my one with the roof on and the other two are from the net.
 I think the owner of the red one used to be a member on here.

 Unfortunately my hood is in Slovakia, otherwise I could have sent it to you to use as a pattern.

those wheels remind me of something, met a reliant man who said he built a MCA with his brother in the late 80s

he gave me a picture

this man was from Wigan, he got bored of it he said and fitted a reliant 750 engine and then returned it to standard before selling it on

his brother had a convertible in red
