Otto Linton’s MG J4

I have traced the history of Otto’s MG J4 from the factory through the current owner, Otto raced this car in the early days of the SCCA.

The car is best known for racing at the first Watkins Glen where its supercharged engine was so loud that the progress of the race could be tracked downtown by its sound.
