I stumbled across this photo of a bespoke MG 1100 recently, but have no idea who modified it. It could be Radford, Hooper or one of many others, but I cannot find any proof. So, if any fellow puzzlers know who converted this MG ADO16 please, including Facel-Vega headlamps, this information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. (Still unresolved).
To start with the obvious: the "B" registration dates it as 1964. Which coachbuilders were in business then?

I would have thought that Facel-Vega headlamp units would have been hard to come by, which makes me wonder whether it was done at Hersham & Walton Motors. I've just had a quick glance through my copy of Fred Hobbs' autobiography but unfortunately there's nothing mentioned.
