MECHANICALLY RESTORED LOVELY RUNNING 1959 MGA

Description for MG MGA 1959

YOU ARE BIDDING ON MY 1959 MGA.

ABOUT THE CAR......I BOUGHT THIS CAR 5 YEARS AGO WITH A SEIZED, FROM SITTING, ENGINE. I REMOVED THE ENGINE, STRIPPED IT AND HAD A FULL RECONDITIONING AND MACHINE WORK DONE WITH ALL HIGH END MOSS MOTORS PARTS. FOR A LITTLE MORE GO THE ENGINE IS AN EARLY THREE MAIN 1800cc 'B' UNIT. ENGINE WAS REBUILT AND INSTALLED BY KAT'S BRITISH IN ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO. WHILE THE CAR WAS IN THEIR SHOP IT WAS FITTED WITH A NEW FUEL TANK, FUEL PUMP, BATTERY, FRONT SUSPENSION UNITS, RADIATOR, HOSES, ETC. ETC. REBUILT STARTER AND ALTERNATOR, SPIN ON OIL FILTER CONVERSION, REBUILT CARBS WITH ALL NEW INTERNALS. THE LIST FEELS ENDLESS :) THE TRANSMISSION WAS REMOVED, SERVICED AND ALL SEALS AND GASKETS REPLACED. ALL BRAKE LINES, WHEEL CYLINDERS AND CLUTCH AND BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WERE REPLACED. I WANTED TO USE THE ORIGINAL WHEELS BUT LOOSE SPOKES AND SPLINE DAMAGE REQUIRED THAT I BUY NEW MOSS ITEMS AS WELL AS NEW SPLINED HUBS, TIRES AND TUBES AND REPLACED AXLE SEALS AND BEARINGS. MY GOAL WAS TO HAVE DECENT LOOKING, REALLY MECHANICALLY GOOD, DAILY DRIVER AND I THINK I ACHIEVED THAT IN SPADES :) IT'S BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 500 MILES SINCE COMPLETION. PAINT IS FAIR AND COULD BE BETTER WITH A GOOD POLISH AND WAX.

I DID ALSO PURCHASE A TON OF OTHER PARTS THAT YOU GET TO INSTALL INCLUDING A FAN SHROUD, 7 BLADE FAN, PETRONIX DISTRIBUTOR, FLAME THROWER COIL, NEW AIR FILTER ASSEMBLIES AND MORE !

I RECENTLY HAD A KNEE REPLACEMENT, I'M 6'1" AND 225, STILL NEED MY OTHER KNEE AND HIP REPLACED SO I REALLY DON'T ENJOY DRIVING THIS CAR AS MUCH AS I DID SO IT HAS TO GO AND RESERVE IS SET ACCORDINGLY TO ENSURE A SALE AND SUBSTANTIALLY BELOW MY INVESTMENT COSTS. RESERVE IS WHERE I'VE SEEN SOME NON RUNNING PROJECTS PRICED AT !!!

I'M HAPPY TO SHOW THE CAR LOCALLY SO FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT BUT PLEASE DON'T WASTE MY TIME.
