MGA roadster. Documented
38, 000 ORIGINAL
miles
. Second owner
purchased this car in 1980 with 37, 000 miles, did a body off restoration in
1985, and today the car has 38, 094 miles. It has been stored and covered in a heated
underground garage for the past 30 years and driven to local car shows and
Sunday drives around the lake. The car just received a recent tune up with new
coil, adjusted carbs, points, plugs, condenser, brakes, brake master cylinder, new
battery and five new SR steel belted radial tires with less than 300
miles. The car comes with the
original softtop, top frame, side curtains, tonneau cover, hammer, hand crank
starter, service manual, and jack, all in excellent original condition. In addition, the car has a brand
new soft top that has never been opened. During the restoration the fenders and body panels
were removed and repainted the original factory red. Seats and interior were totally redone keeping the
original black interior color and upgrading the seats to black leather with red
piping. There is
NO RUST or BONDO
on this car anywhere. The wheels are original painted steel
spoked wheels and are in excellent condition. This car was restored as a low mile rust free car and
you will not find a better example should you decide to make this car into a #
1 condition concourse show quality car. The underside is undercoated but all the inside fender
wells were left with a shiny painted finish. Lights, horn, gages, heater, blinkers, all work as
intended. The chrome is
outstanding as seen in the photos. There is a crack in the paint above both front fenders and a paint
blemish just behind the passenger headlight. I have taken a picture of these three blemishes but
they are difficult to see. I have taken well over 100 photos of the
car so if there is any other photo you care to see, please call or email me.
With
the value of the Jaguars and Austin Healey’s continuing to sky rocket, the MGA’s
appear to be right behind them. The
Hagerty book value for a #2 condition MGA is $35, 000 and my reserve is far
below this price so if you are in the market for a fast appreciating English collector
sports car, this car can be purchased for a great value.
This
car is being sold As-Is, Where-Is, and no warranty is expressed or
implied. I encourage and
welcome a visit should you care to drive the car and inspect it for yourself. I have tried to represent the car
the best I can. The buyer
will be responsible for making all shipping arrangements however I can assist
with loading the car onto a transport trailer. Good luck, and happy bidding. Feel free to call me or
email be and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have about this
wonderful MGA. There will be
no disappointments. Jan, 952-457-8437.
