Oxfordshire-based Frontline Developments was founded in 1991 by Tim Fenna and specializes in performance-based customizations of MG MGBs. Each car is stripped to its steel unibody, which receives rustproofing prior to being fitted with replacement body panels from British Motor Heritage in Witney, United Kingdom.
The car left Frontline Developments finished in Bermuda Blue and was repainted in its current shade of MG Midnight Blue by Frontline before the current owner’s acquisition in 2018. Exterior equipment includes LED taillights, chrome bumpers, dual mirrors, vent windows, bright trim, and twin exhaust outlets. Replacement headlights were installed in November 2021.
Chrome-finished 15″ wire wheels with stainless-steel spokes are affixed with two-eared knock-off spinners and wear 185/70 front and 215/60 rear Avon CR6-ZZ tires. The car is equipped with electric power steering, aluminum front suspension uprights with adjustable dampers, and six-link rear suspension with adjustable coilovers. The updated braking system features Goodridge braided stainless-steel brake hoses as well as billet alloy four-piston calipers up front and two-piston calipers out back.
The cabin features hand-formed alloy seat shells upholstered in Claret Connolly Vaumol leather as well as a matching center console, door panels, and gear shift and hand brake gaiters. Brown Hydes leather adorns the dash, upper door caps, handbrake lever, and door pull straps while black Wilton carpet lines the floors. Amenities include heated seats, power windows, and a JL Audio sound system consisting of a Bluetooth-capable audio receiver, crossover speakers, and a trunk-mounted amplifier. An air conditioning system was installed by Frontline Developments in 2018 and the heater, turn signal switch, and left-side window regulator were repaired under current ownership.
The three-spoke Moto-Lita steering wheel is wrapped in leather and fronts custom Smiths instrumentation including a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges, while an analog clock, power window switches, and gauges measuring oil pressure, oil temperature, and battery voltage are mounted in the center stack. The digital odometer indicates over 9k miles since completion of the Frontline build, approximately 7k of which were added under current ownership. Total chassis mileage is unknown.
The instrument binnacle is upholstered in brown Hydes leather and houses an oil pressure warning light and a Jaguar XKE-sourced turn signal indicator. The speedometer face indicates that this car is number 10 out of 25 Abington Edition examples produced.
The Mazda-supplied 2.5L inline-four is equipped with an Omex Technology engine management system, individual throttle bodies, and solid lifters as well as a forged crankshaft, connecting rods, and pistons. Work performed in January 2020 included the replacement of the fuel tank. An oil change was last performed in November 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The clutch disc was replaced in June 2022.
A dark blue tonneau cover will accompany the car, as will an indoor car cover, a leather tool roll, and a NOCO portable power pack.
