Vehicle Description
When introduced, the "A" charted a new direction for MG. The cars
were lower with sleek lines, more roomy interior, low seating
position and more powerful. Most importantly was the departure of
the body-on-frame design for a uni-body construction. The car was
stiffer, much more rigid, and demonstrated vastly improved handling
capabilities. The A transcended MG to the sports car world and
developed a rich racing history. To this day, the MGA is considered
the best overall MG produced.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this absolutely stunning MG A
for your consideration. Not often do we get cars that are pristine,
but this 1957 surely fits the bill. Sold new in San Diego,
California, this A was purchased from its second owner in 2010 and
was treated a full frame off restoration that took four years. The
car is finished in Old English White and is stunning. The paint and
body work are excellent, as is the shiny chrome, and new period
correct tires. The engine was rebuilt and it features a larger
block from an MG B as well as APT Cam and ported and polished
heads. The engine still uses everything else from the original
engine and you would never be able to tell without disassembling
it. The interior is spotless and features new dark tan hides and a
perfect dashboard. The car also features new window seals, new
alternator and starter.
Everything is as it should and is probably nicer than when it left
the factory. The current owner has enjoyed the car and has taken it
to many shows where it has even won some awards. The car is a
wonderful driver and even has a brand new convertible top. It comes
with two keys as well as a spare tire, wheel hammer, and jack.
