Beautiful replica of a supercharged MG K3 built by Tom Dark Engineering
1936 MG Other
This MG K3 Reproduction roadster, crafted by Tom Dark Engineering in the early 1990s, is built on the chassis of a 1936 MG Magnette. Originally imported to the United States, the car was acquired by the previous owner around 2019 as a non-running project. Since then, a replacement supercharged 1,271cc inline-six engine has been installed, along with a complete overhaul of the carburetor, fuel and cooling systems, and the four-speed pre-selector gearbox. The car features bespoke aluminum race-inspired bodywork, finished in a rich dark green, and a matching right-hand-drive interior.
Noteworthy exterior features include 18" wire-spoke wheels with two-eared knockoffs, a side-exit exhaust, a leather hood strap, and a distinctive badge bar. The fold-down windshield, paired with Brooklands-style windscreens, adds to the car’s vintage appeal. The vehicle’s suspension consists of a solid rear axle, friction shocks up front, and leaf springs on all four corners, while four-wheel drum brakes provide stopping power. The bodywork is complemented by headlight guards and a right-side mirror, with a matching spare wheel secured at the rear.
Inside, the cockpit is appointed with bucket seats upholstered in green leather, complemented by color-matched door caps and carpets. The black dashboard features a glovebox and a rearview mirror. Jaeger instrumentation includes a reverse-sweep 8k rpm tachometer and six auxiliary gauges, though the car is not equipped with a speedometer or odometer.
The heart of the roadster is the supercharged 1,271cc inline-six engine, which was rebuilt prior to being installed in August 2023. It boasts a six-into-one exhaust system and a polished valve cover. The four-speed pre-selector manual transmission was also meticulously overhauled under previous ownership. The car is offered with a Pennsylvania title, bearing an Antique Vehicle brand.
This one-of-a-kind MG K3 reproduction roadster is a true testament to craftsmanship, combining classic style with performance enhancements.
