Did anyone see this A 4sale?

Share this page

I didn't see it for sale on that page, but I did find it eventually.



1960 MGA Roadster Race Car
This MGA was found stored since the late 70's
History on the car is unclear. Ownership has been traced back to two previous owners both from the conneticut area. It appears to have been raced but no log book or records were with it. A fair amount of work has been done on it between restoring inner metal panels and suspension parts.
The car and parts are available for $12,900. Email for more information schwamiii@aol.com

This car came up a little more than a year ago, the photos then showed it in a run down warehouse. I suppose it was some sort of barn find, but now apparently a dealer has it. It stirred up a bit of interest at first. Looks a bit better now that it's cleaned up a bit, but still needs a lot of work and missing the engine and transmission and with no real racing pedigree I think the price is way too high.
 
Even with a racing pedigree it would be worth less than a street-worthy car.

Without a roll bar (unless it has been removed) it would have to be a very early racer. The kill switch is about the only indication of any race prep - those wheels certainly wouldn't make it on any track use and the knock-offs scream tarted up street rather than serious racer.

It would probably make a decent platform for a vintage racer, but basically the only thing going for it would be lack of rust.
