Vehicle description
I"m selling my(now deceased) husbands British car collection. He purchased this 1958 MGA in2005. He tinkered with it and enjoyed driving it locally until his passing in2011. The car has been garage kept during ownership. My son put a reconditionedbattery in it and looked it over, the following is what he noted. Mechanically: Thetires are like new. All of the following are in working order: Head lights, running lights and brake lights. The turn signals need to be gonethrough. The wipers work as does the gauges (the needle on the tachometer jumpsaround some). The engine : (1500cc ?) starts right up and idlessmooth. It runs and sounds good with no unusual noises. Oil pressure runsbetween 80 pounds cold and 40 pounds at idle (temperature running at 175degrees). The coolant system holds water and does not over heat. It has a4-speed manual gear box that does not jump out of gear. A little grind noisewas noted shifting into second gear. The interior: Looks mostlyoriginal. The seats, map pockets, door panels and kick panels are in nicecondition for their age. The dash looks original. In the description of thecar, when my husband bought it, it stated; “New material on top of dash andrear parcel shelf”. “It was also stated to have dynamat sound and heat proofmaterial as well as a layer of felt, resulting in a more quiet and cooler ride”. Exterior: Some body work was done by a previous owner and is in goodcondition with a good shine. While stored in our garage something fell off ashelf and put two dings on the right rear quarter panel. The tail light on thatside is glued. There is some rust on the lateral cross member which goes fromthe main frame towards the gearshift. This is not a perfect concours examplebut is a very nice original example of a rare model and gets a lot of attentionand thumbs up while driving. Before bidding, closely view the posted photos tosee the actual condition of this coupe. It’s recommended to go through thebrake system. I had the title transferred into my name, so no issue there.Selling as is. Included are a few extra spare parts. If you win this auction a$500.00 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours.
