DESCRIPTION

The MGA was a sports car produced by the MG division of the British Motor Corporation from 1955 until 1962. The MGA replaced the older 'T' type cars and represented a complete break from the style of the older vehicles into a new era of sports cars. The car was officially launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show of 1955 to an enthusiastic audience and sales success was quick to follow.

This car is recently imported from dry-state USA and is in lefthand drive form. It was first registered in 1962 and upon arrival sported mostly Green bodywork. Whilst this car is rightly billed as a restoration project, it is a complete car with all main components present. This MGA, showing just 56,000 believed-genuine miles was running and in good mechanical order on arrival from the USA, however it has now been stripped for restoration to begin.

The body has been removed and the panels and tub have been sand blasted and are now in primer. Perhaps in thanks to the dry climate from whence it came this car showed very little evidence of rust. Most of the component parts which are offered as part of this Lot are boxed waiting for refurbishment and restoration to the car.

Regrettably there is little history to accompany this car, however we can confirm that it is supplied with a US Certificate of Title from the State of California and has also the important C&E 386 documentation evidencing that taxes have been paid.

This would be a rewarding and relatively straight-forward project for the enthusiastic restorer.
