Description for MG MGA 1961

**PLEASE SCROLL DOWN THE AD LISTING PAGE TO VIEW A COMPLETE SET OF DETAILED PHOTOS OF THE VEHICLE**Offered for sale, from KURT TANNER MOTORCARS, is this very pretty 1961 MGA 1600 Coupe. This late production MK1 was just purchased from it's long term owner who performed a body-off-the-chassis restoration on the car. It included plenty of new parts from Moss Motors. The car is finished in the attractive MG color scheme of Iris Blue with Navy Blue leather trim with 60-spoke painted wire wheels, a great combination for this rare closed car. The MGA Coupe is 10 times rarer than the common and plentiful roadster, making this MK1 1600 a desirable car.The restoration of this car included very nice bodywork and paint. Panel fit is very good. The doors could use some final fine tuning and fitting. The car is fitted with a new windshield, full rubber kit including front and rear glass, new chromework, new tires, wiring harness, mechanical items, hoses, stainless steel Falcon exhaust system, etc. A completely new Moss Motors trim kit was installed including full panel kit, headliner kit, new leather seats kits, door seals, gray carpet kit, matching trunk dress up carpet kit, etc. The car starts easily on the key and runs and drives very well, as expected. The car only has 85 test miles on the complete restoration, and could use a few small knick-knacks for easy final completion (door adjustment, fitting of heater hose,etc).The owner stated the car was restored under the guidance of his friend who was an MG expert, so the correctness of the finished car was important.Overall, a lovely and rare MG sports coupe in the right colors with the desirable 1600 specifications. The MGA 1600 Coupe was only produced for three years with a mere 1750 units made in left hand drive form.
