Vehicle description
Engine: 1489 cc inline-4
Transmission: 4-speed manual
Gear Ratio: 4.3
Wheelbase: 94 inches
Wheels: 15-inch wire wheels
Tires: 5.60-15 Champion whitewall
The 1500 cc inline-4 was an energetic performer, and it remains very entertaining today. Thanks to a full rebuild in 2017 (which was about 900 miles ago), it runs superbly. The list of new parts is extensive, virtually everything inside the block is new, plus things like the fuel pump, distributor (now with a Pertronix electronic ignition inside), and water pump. The twin SU side-draft carburetors were rebuilt and the wiring is new. Thanks to careful tuning, it starts easily with just a little choke and runs superbly on the open road. The block itself was painted familiar MG Maroon, with a polished aluminum rocker cover that adds a little flash. There’s also a fresh radiator up front, a shroud for the fan to improve cooling, and the big heater unit up on the cowl is fully operational. You should have no qualms about getting in and having some fun in this MG.
