Vehicle Detail
Absolutely beautiful older frame off restoration of an excellent, no rust , 1959 MGA. All body panels blasted and primed. Extensive restoration performed by BMC Restorations, an expert in this field. Numerous receipts and photos to document high quality. Car was driven only during sunny days and kept garaged since its new lease on life during the last 8 years since total overhaul. This MGA drives fantastic, very strong performance and very tight. It did receive a 1961 MGA larger cc engine in process of the rebuild. The original block may be available with further investigation if someone would want it. The quality of finish is mirror like but does have a few blemishes. The interior, undercarriage , top, engine compartment and trunk are immaculate. This truly is an excellent example of an enjoyable, nostalgic and pure pleasure vehicle. I personally had spent over 30 years in the Sport Car Business, retiring a few years back. The automobile belongs to a personal friend and requested my assistance in selling. What a pleasure it is to have it in my garage! Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Glenn 504-250-0300.
