Produced for less than two years, 1967-'69, the MGC was intended to replace the Austin Healey 3000 MkIII. While sales of the "Big-Healey" continued, production ended in 1967. The MGC was based directly on the MGB, with added structural support up front for the six-cylinder motor. The only outwardly noticeable changes were in the bonnet (hood) which had a bulge added for the radiator and a teardrop for carburetor clearance.
This 1969 MGC Roadster is a great example of these rare vehicles. The British Racing Green finish catches attention immediately. It carries a black convertible top over a black interior, and all are in very good condition. The engine starts without hesitation and the six-cylinder exhaust note turns heads. The mated 4-spd transmission easily shifts through all the gears and the overdrive functions properly.
As per the included documentation, this MGC Roadster is a numbers-matching vehicle built to North American export standards. This is a rare opportunity as less than 2500 USA Export models were built.
