Ann Arbor, Michigan

This is a rare find !  This MGA 1600 MkII is a one-owner car in all original unrestored condition.  We even have a photocopy of the original owner's title.   From what we understand from production figures, there were only 6,286 MGA MkII roadsters built for North America; and only a mere 2,365 MGA MkII roadsters built in 1962, the very last year of MGA production.  The original color is Iris Blue, perhaps with one respray many years ago.  The odometer shows 74,742 original miles.   This MGA 1600 MkII is a perfect candidate for a thorough restoration.  The best thing about this car is that there is nothing to undo ... there's no bondo plastic filler, no poor welding repairs, no accident damage, and no surprises.  Always garage kept.  This car is a time capsule. This car still has the original 48-spoke wire wheels with vintage bias-ply tires.  It also comes with two snow tires mounted on extra wire wheels.  This MGA also still has two Lucas 6-volt batteries in the battery boxes and includes the original convertible top on frame and rebuildable side curtains.   It is a solid car, but has typical MGA rust and will require lower patch panels on three of the four fenders, some work in the door B-pillar pillar areas, and rockers panels on both sides.  The frame is very solid with surface rust.  This car has all the late model-specific MGA 1600 MkII improvements, including the recessed grille, new tail lamps, factory oil cooler, high-compression 1622cc engine, front disc brakes, and the higher 4.1:1 rear axle ratio for quicker acceleration   This car has the original high-compression 1622cc engine # 16GCU- H -3960.  From what we have learned from a relative of the original owner, the car sat for a very long time in his garage before we located it.  Presently, the car does not run, but rolls freely.  The engine was free as of last summer, but we have not been able to turn it over recently.  In summary, this particular MGA 1600 MkII Roadster is for someone with the time, skills and passion to acquire this restoration project. We welcome an inspection of the car by appointment only.  International buyers are welcome.   If you are looking for a unique MGA MkII, look no farther.  This MGA will only appreciate in value !
