MG PB of K Scales receives a helping hand during the MG Car Club Midland Centre Trial, 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Bill Brunell, we witness an iconic moment from the MG Car Club Midland Centre Trial in 1938. The image showcases the vintage beauty of an MG PB (Vehicle Reg. No. BGN444) as it finds itself broken down on a picturesque countryside hill. Amidst the rustic charm of rural Britain, a group of determined men gather around to assist K Scales, the driver of this classic automobile. With their combined strength and unwavering support, they push against all odds to get the MG PB back on track. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates both the spirit of camaraderie within motor sport and the challenges faced by early motorists navigating off-road terrains. It serves as a testament to human resilience and determination in overcoming obstacles during that era. The event programme reveals that K Scales was driving an MG 847cc PA according to official records but chose to participate with his beloved MG PB instead. This decision only adds another layer of intrigue and passion surrounding this historic rally. Preserved for posterity at the National Motor Museum, this monochrome photograph transports us back in time to experience a moment frozen in history – where man and machine unite against adversity for their shared love of motoring excellence.
