Many additional new parts includes wind shield, chrome, etc., etc. (receipts included) All very properly prepared, preserved and presented Over one-hundred snap-shot photographs in a photo-album show the tear-down and build-up More digital pictures available via Email upon request Left-hand-drive American specification, Car Number HDK43/24605. A club member was kind enough to inform me the car was originally red. I can confirm there are no traces of the old paint on the car, anywhere. The car has a clear title, registered and insured in my name. Since completion, I have driven this delightful roadster approximately 40/50 miles only Please note the car is sold “as is and where is” with no warranty offered or implied. Speedometer, odometer and rev. counter stopped working when I last drove it? All other gauges working correctly. Spare wheel and jack missing. Starting Handle present. The interior is not brand new; it was replaced in a former life. The Moto-Lita wood-rim steering wheel was very popular back in the day. Advertised elsewhere on the web. . F.O.B. Lake Worth, Florida, USA. Shipping will be extra, but I can help with a competitive recommendation $33,950.00 The reserve is considerably, much less! My car is in Lake Worth if you wish to inspect it. If you are seriously bidding on my car to buy it, you will be buying a hardly-ever-never-really-used car since the restoration. If you are not familiar with MGAs then you see how well the designers sculptured this car. It is looked upon as “very pretty” --- so say my lady friends. Driving is easy and would well suit a lady as much as a gentleman. In other words, the non-power steering is not an issue. It is fun to drive and if you like to be seen, it will be seen: At intersections people call out to me unabashedly, “nice ride!” I've restarted the auction where we left off, so we are getting closer. Have another go and you might be the lucky one. Payment via wire transfer within 72 hours of the close of the auction.

THE HOOD, TRUNK, LEFT AND RIGHT DOORS ALL FIT PERFECTLY ON MY CAR. THERE IS NO RUST. ALL THE UNDERSIDES, CHASSIS, FRAMEWORK RUST HAS BEEN TOTALLY REMOVED AND ALL SURFACES ARE NOW PRESERVED FOR POSTERITY. THE ENGINE IS YET TO BE RUN-IN. PLEASE NOTICE THIS IS A SUPERIOR PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION AND THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 50 MILES SINCE. LOOK AT THE PHOTOGRAPHS CAREFULLY AND REQUEST SOME MORE IF YOU WISH. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN WASHED OR WAXED OR SEEN THE RAIN. IF YOU ARE ATTRACTED TO WIRE WHEELS, KEEP IN MIND THEY ARE MORE DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN BALANCE. SPLINES ON WIRE WHEELS CAN GET DAMAGED WITH INCORRECT USE AND THEY CAN BECOME RUSTY AND 'FROZEN' ON. IF THE TENSION ON THE SPOKES IS INCORRECT, THEY CAN CAUSE THE WHOLE CAR TO SHAKE AT SPEED. PRESSED STEEL WHEELS ARE EASIER TO KEEP CLEAN. HOWEVER, IF YOU WISH TO CONVERT THIS CAR TO WIRE WHEELS, DEPENDING UPON YOUR CHOICES, THIS CAN BE EASILY ACCOMPLISHED FOR BETWEEN $2k AND $3k. DON'T LET THE LACK OF WIRE WHEELS DISTRACT YOU FROM THIS SUPERIOR RESTORATION AND REBUILD.
