This 1961 MGA 1600 MK1 roadster was acquired by the owner in June 2001, and a subsequent refreshment included re-upholstery of the interior in black with light blue piping as well as installing chrome-plated Dayton 60-spoke wire wheels, a stainless steel exhaust system, brake lines, a rebuilt distributor, and a Mocal oil cooler radiator. Power is provided by a 1.6-liter inline-four paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, and additional features include a period Motorola transistor-powered radio, a Stayfast tonneau cover, and a luggage rack.
The seller states that the car was repainted from red to white over 20 years ago. Features include chrome bumper overriders, fender-mounted mirrors, and a luggage rack.
Chrome-plated 60-spoke Dayton wheels with two-eared knock-off spinners were mounted with 165H15 Vredestein Sprint Classic tires in May 2019.
The seats were reupholstered in black with light blue piping under current ownership. The electrical system was reportedly rewired in 2006, and a period transistor-powered Motorola radio is installed.
Jaeger instrumentation sits behind a banjo-style steering wheel and includes a tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and water temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 26k miles.
The 1.6-liter inline-four was fitted with pancake-style air filters and a Mocal oil cooler radiator under current ownership. The engine block is said to have been serviced by Randy’s Classic British Auto in Minnetonka, Minnesota and the distributor rebuilt by Advanced Distributors.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission, and stainless steel exhaust components are installed.
The British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate lists an August 1960 build date and dispatch the same month as well as factory colors, equipment, and numbers.
