The MGA was produced from 1955 to 1962 by the British Motor Corporation. The A replaced the aging MG TF 1500 and earlier TD models, epresenting a complete redesign of the iconic open sports car. A total production of 101,081 units were produced before the introduction of the all new B model in September of 1962. Only 5,869 cars were sold in England, aking the MGA the highest percentage of all British cars built for the export market. With falling sales of the traditional MG models, he MGA design was given the production green light despite being initially designed in 1951. Production had been delayed by BMCs decision to build Donald Healeys Austin-Healey sports cars. The new MGA was a body on frame construction and utilized the straight-4 B series engine from the Magnette Sedan. Suspension was independent with coil springs and wishbones at the front and a rigid axle with semi-elliptic springs at the rear. Steering was rack and pinion and wire wheels were an option.
