MGB Midget racing car: Widening the wheel arches for the track
Professional widening of the wheel arches for a lowered MGB Midget racing car. Custom-made bodywork to prevent tyre contact during track use.
With this MGB Midget racing car, the brief was driven by a technical necessity: the car has been significantly lowered to improve track performance. As a result, the tyres were rubbing against the wheel arches, an issue we resolved immediately without compromising the MG’s classic look.
We widened the wheel arches on both sides by 2 cm with the utmost precision. By manually adjusting the bodywork, there is now sufficient space for the tyres at maximum compression, whilst the sporty lines of the race car have been retained. This project demonstrates that our craftsmanship in bodywork is essential for both the aesthetics and the technical performance of a classic racer.
