Reproduction MGTDs

There is an old saying that imitation is the best form of flattery. I would say that may be true but only when the imitation is as good as the real thing. In most cases its more like an embarrassment. Anyway for your entertainment I have provided a few samples of imitators of the MGTD. I use the term Reproduction here very loosely.

Many of the pictures of the replicars on this page came from Bob Classic's, Inc.

Also known as kit cars. Many times these cars are sold in parts to be assembled by the new owner. Generally supplied without the running chassis. An owner would secure a chassis and then mount the body and other components on top using the parts of the kit. Magazines such as Kit Car sold and promoted replica's not only from MGTDs but other popular cars such as Jaguar, Porche, Mercedes and just about any classic style car.
