Original photographer and date unknown.
The Magnette ZB replaced the ZA which was launched at the October 1953 London Motor Show. The ZA was the first monocoque MG car. It was designed by Gerald Palmer (1911-1999), who also created the 1947 Jowett Javelin.
The MG Magnette had a 1952 Wolseley 4/44 body, an Austin 1500 BMC engine and a MG grille. Excellent badge engineering so to say...
The Magnette ZB shared the car body with the ZA, but it got a wider rear window and a stronger engine.
The Magnette had leather seats and a wooden dashboard panel. Two tone paintwork was an option for the ZB (specified as Varitone).
Private import from Sweden.
This depicted Magnette underwent a total and successful restoration.
Seen at the viewing days of the Palmen Barnfind Collection Auction initiated by Gallery Aaldering, Brummen and provided by Classic Car Auctions, location Dordrecht.

Not painted in Varitone colors, unfortunately. This was the first time I've ever seen more than one Magnette together in the same place.

This is a photo I recently was given of my Grandfather and his Gibson ES-355 with Varitone, Fender Bandmaster Amps, and an unknown piece of Fender equipment on top of the amp head. I'm trying to identify what it is.

Artec has a line of active processing modules that fit inside your guitar. In that same collection of toys they had this one passive module. The QTP "Quadra Tone Peaking" circuit, which is really just a Varitone done with tiny surface-mount capacitors. I figured I'd give it a try. I'm doing #25 right now and it's as good a testbed as any. No terminals for connection, though. You apparently have to solder right onto the trace. Kinda messy soldering on the board, BTW. I was a little surprised. Of course, Macro shots make teeny things seem a lot bigger than they are.

My dad's in the process of re-veneering all the wood in the Magnette and it's coming out amazing so far. I can't wait to see what it looks like once it's stained and varnished.
