The 1935 MG PB Airline Coupe is an extremely rare pre-war British automobile, with only 14 known examples built on the PB chassis. It represents a sculptural expression of Art Deco automotive design, combining elegant coachwork with nimble British engineering.
The Airline Coupe was designed by H.W. Allingham and bodied by Carbodies of Coventry, transforming the standard MG PB into a luxurious Art Deco masterpiece.
Key features include cathedral skylights in the sliding sunroof, a wind-out windshield, an elegant fastback silhouette, and the graceful sweeping lines that give it the presence of a much larger car despite its compact 87.25-inch wheelbase.
It features MG's final iteration of the overhead-cam crossflow-head inline-four 'Midget' engine, producing 43 horsepower from 939 cc with twin SU carburetors, paired with a four-speed manual gearbox and adjustable Andre Hartford shock absorbers.
The car is on display at the DFW Car & Toy Museum located at 2550 McMillan Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76137 (at Meacham and I35w), as part of The Ron Sturgeon Collection.
The museum is open Tuesday-Saturday from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, offers free parking and admission, and is dog-friendly while encouraging photography.
Ron Sturgeon is the owner of DFW Car & Toy Museum and a dedicated car collector for over 30 years, with a background that includes building one of the largest auto salvage operations in the country and restoring classic and exotic cars.
