1962 MGA MK. II
The MGA is a sports car produced by MG division of the British Motor Corporation from 1955 to 1962. The MGA replaced the MG TF 1500 Midget and represented a complete styling break from MG's earlier sports cars. Announced on 26 September 1955 the car was officially launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show. A total of 101,081 units were sold through the end of production in July 1962, the vast majority of which were exported. Only 5869 cars were sold on the home market, the highest export percentage of any British car. Road & Track magazine reviewed the MG A 1600 Mark II in the September 1961 issue and reported an estimated top speed of 105 mph and a 0-60 acceleration of 12.8 seconds.
We have known this particular MGA for nearly 15 years serving it for one owner and then selling it to another. It represents the best combination of of the breed with the larger 1622cc motor, front disc brakes, oil cooler, and chrome wire wheels. It features the correct black leather seating piped in contrasting red. The body is razor straight and sports a high gloss mirror finish paint. It has a factory style luggage rack, wind wings, twin fender mirrors, tonneau cover and side curtains. The car is a pleasure to drive being tight and spirited. It would easily be a podium contender in local shows.
