Cecil Kimber was the man behind MG convincing William morris in the early 1920s to let him produce more stylish cars than were available at the time.
At first he mounted Cowley chassis on special four-seater bodies, and these were sold as 'The Chummy' without too much success, but he soon got it right. At first Kimber's cars were sold as Morris Garages Specials then shortened to Mg. It only took a few years of Kimber producing this unique range of cars before in 1928 MG has its first stand at the motor show in Olympia exhibiting for one the 847cc over-head cam Midget.
In 1962 the most successful of all MG sports cars was introduced, this was of course the spectacular MGB. In 1975 the one millionth MG was produced in 1979, while the MG staffs were celebrating the 50th anniversary of building cars at the Abingdon works,
British Leyland Chairman Sir Michael Edwards announced that the decision had been made to axe MG sports car production, and this decision was announced publicly on the 10th September 1979.
