1956 MGA and Avro Arrow

So I was going through the paperwork that came with the car and an original workshop manual was included. There are some early dates (1958 and 1961) and the manual pages are soiled with notes from early service. There was a sketch with dimensions on a blank page and when I turned it over I discovered the enclosed worksheet.

It is an AVRO aircraft design sheet that would have been used by design engineers and technical people. As a secure military design project there would have been limited access to these worksheets.

Since the car was always in the Toronto area since 1956 I speculate that this car may have been owned by an engineer who worked on the AVRO Arrow project.

Very Interesting.
