With the MGA coupe purchase something has to go, and well it looks like the Rover drew the short straw.
She is complete, and runs and drives. There are 135,000 miles on her and she is very original. She has the fuel injected Rover 3.5 and she does not smoke or leak.
The 5 speed shifts crisply, but is a bit noisy in neutral and I'm not sure if it the throw bearings or something else. Second gear has a slight crunch when she is cold and you shift quickly, but once warm or at a less than frantic shift quickness she goes into second without any crunching.
The interior door panels are shot, as is her seat coverings, but there is very little rust. Her floor pans are solid and there is no structural rust or cancer. There is surface rust, but it is minor.
I can send along more pictures and am happy to answer questions.
