Price: US $7,265.00 SOLD OUT
Details: Most of the upgrade/replace work was completed in 2005. Since that time the car has been stored except to drive short distances several times per year to preserve the running gear. The oil has been changed once per year regardless of the need. There is certainly no more that about 500 miles on the car. The suspension has been lowered to former chrome bumper standards using custom kingpins and all new shocks and bushings so as to improve both looks and handling. Rear shocks are rebuilt originals. The car uses Mini wheels with all new brakes. The fuel pump is brand new. The engine came bored .020 over to aid in seating the new pistons which were profiled so as to optimize the compression ratio for street running with premium gas. The head is an earlier big valve type with new springs, bronze guides, valves and lifters. The cam is by Crane intended to yield higher torque at lower RPM's. Induction is by newly rebuilt duel SU HS-4 Carbs. Exhaust is all new and manifolds have been flame-spray coated with ceramic. A new distributor with hot coil is included. If buyer wants, standard distributor can be swapped out for electronic ignition. Brake servo is new as well as rebuilt master cylinder. New heavy duty Delco alternator installed. Radiator rodded and rebuilt. The top and tonneau are in good condition except for a few places that could use restitching. Carpets are new. All work and parts documentation are provided. This MG would make a fast and fun rally car, vintage racer, or great handling mountain touring car. I am including a number of extra assorted parts and stuff with car such as tech how-to books and 12 volt relays to turn on the lights-- no more Prince of Darkness. I will gladly answer any questions and invite all reasonable offers. You can buy a cheaper car and work on it forever or you can buy one with the bulk of the major work done and enjoy the drive.
