Vehicle Description
There are a few body styles out there that make you say "Wow!" from
the moment they come into view, and this 1961 MGA is in that very
select class. The year-correct Dove Gray paint was given a
high-quality respray as part of a full frame-off multi-year
restoration. The work was completed around 1993, but the
presentation today reminds you that top quality will always last
when given the proper respect. In fact, this is the kind of
distinctly beautiful style that continues to be award-worthy. The
sunlight loves to radiate off the glossy finish as it showcases
what makes the MGA an icon. It's in the long flowing fenders that
help create the low-cut doorline, the aggressive rear fenders that
kick up for the wheels, and the unmistakably smooth European trunk
(boot) design. There's shining brightwork everywhere from the curvy
chrome bumpers to the quintessentially British rear luggage rack.
Plus, you'll love the true sports car details, like the side wind
wings and wire wheels with true knock-off hubs. And while the
exterior is elegant, the red leather interior can't help but
deliver some sports car vividness. So as you look through the full
package - everywhere from the hallmark grille to the strong
powerhouse - you'll discover exactly why this is an enduring
enthusiast's icon.

The MGA is truly a fun and elemental enthusiast car. But when you
really get it right, it also looks like pure rolling art. The Dove
Gray paint is timelessly elegant as it gives off notes of white and
blue. The brakes were painted red on this car so that you got a
hint of the matching interior color. Wire wheels, knock-off hubs, a
trunk luggage rack, and Jaeger gauges are all part of that true
classic sports car tradition. And because it's a car you'll want to
drive, we appreciate the later/larger 1600cc powerplant gives this
a little extra kick of performance. So what you have is a beautiful
machine that has a desirable and strong powerhouse. That makes for
one of the most alluring packages around, especially at a price
like this. So don't miss out, call today!
