One of the last of the chrome bumper cars, with hardtop. No rust California car Purchased in 2003 by a 73 year old former sports car racer. Tastefully and effectively upgraded over the next nine years with everything he thought relevant to a fast road machine, for use with the MG Club on tours, road rallies, etc. This is a driver’s car, good looking and tidy, but not concours. It has accumulated approximately 3000 miles since 2003.

Very quick … handles impeccably and emits a wonderful exhaust note. Less than 3,000 miles on everything listed. If you’ve ever dreamed of participating in the Snowball Rally or the Anti-Football Run (as seen on “Bring-A-Trailer.com”) then you could do a lot worse than this beauty.
