How many 1967 MGC roadsters were produced?
 
Re: MGC Roadster

by one count - 4,542 total but don't know by year.

by another count 4544.
 
Re: MGC Roadster

I don't believe there were quite that many tourers built in 1967, let alone one year....Total MGC production was only 8999 (9002 in some other counts)...so the 4542 count is most likely total tourer production over the 3 years.
*****

SCHEDULE OF CAR NUMBERS - MGC, 1966-69
Date Roadster GT Notes
Nov 66 101 110 Pre-production, only 13 cars built in 1966
Oct 67 115 116 Pilot production
Nov 67 138 - Start of roadster series production
Dec 67 - 638 Start of GT series production
Dec 67 580 754 Highest numbers issued in 19671
Jan 68 146 640 Lowest numbers issued in 19681
Oct 68 4266 - Start of 1969 model roadster
Nov 68 - 4236 Start of 1969 model GT
Dec 68 6032 5884 Highest numbers issued in 1968 1
Jan 69 4793 4467 Lowest numbers issued in 1969 1
Aug 69 9099 9102 End of production

1 Because of the overlap in car numbers it is not possible to say whether cars 146 to 754 were built in 1967 or 1968. Similarly, cars 4467 to 6032 might have been built in either 1968 or 1969.

One of our readers Bertil Olsson , has number 156 which was built in 1967.

That's what I had said:

Re: MGC Roadster

I'll have to check the number of my C roadster and the CGT..I'm just happy to have one of each.
 
Re: MGC Roadster

Sorry...I mis-read your post.
 
Re: MGC Roadster

I just found a listing in a book of 167 Roadsters. Is that how low the number is?
What are the cars serial #s.
 
Re: MGC Roadster

Any one have a picture comparing a 1967 MGC dash to a 1968 MGC dash?
 
Re: MGC Roadster

No 1967 MGC's (roadsters & GT's) were shipped to North America..actually, there were only 14 LHD's built in that year...but, its a steel dash compared to an Abingdon Pillow dash.

182 of which 176 were RHD...
 
Re: MGC Roadster

Is the difference the same as a 67 B dash compares to a 68 B dash?
The 67 has the plastic escutcheon around the gauges and if I am correct the 68 had a vinyl covering over that escutcheon.
 
Re: MGC Roadster

'67 & '68 dashes are completely different...'68 Abingdon pillow dash was NOTHING like '67 steel dash!
 
Re: MGC Roadster

Thanks for correcting me on that. I never realized how different they actually were.
