MGC Price of MGC

I realize it is difficult, but what is a ballpark figure for a clean, running, needs nothing much MGC roadster?

Thanks

But since only a little over 4,000 came to North America, finding one might be harder than just a price. I've a '68 roadster & a '69 GT and have only had 1 MGC parts car...great ones just aren't out there readily...they've already been scarffed up by guys who'll hang onto them forever....the ones on the market beg the old caveat "buyer beware"
 
I'm currently repainting my 69 CGT(rolled into my paint booth last nite) Have owned it 21 years, been in New Mexico most of its life so its preety clean. Also have a new interior..got the new carpet set, all the window and door seals etc. Hope to have it finished in exactly one week for a British car days show in Las Cruces New Mexico. Only problem is thay say I won't be able to be jdged as I'll be the only C there. Bummer but at least folks will be able to look at it. By the way..I wouldn't take less than 10k for it. Jack
 
I don't recall ever seeing a coupe, and I've looked pretty hard, all I ever see are GTs.
 
On closer look, Bruce, that baby needs some work, but, I think they're pretty scarce. If you need a hand with it let me know, have BCD, will travel!
 
Nowhere near worth what he's asking! The '69 stuff is all off the car & the MGC brake boosters (Say "expensive") are missing or not working...somebody's done a lot of shabby rust repairs & there's no telling what's hidden under than new paint

Back away 50 feet, turn & run like you-know-what!
 
OK, but I'm still offering to come over and help you with whatever you end up buying Bruce!
 
That "69" C has been atthe Connection for well over a year.

Lotsa stuff wrong with it...and who knows what is "hiding" underneath!

Unique bonnet release mechaism, though!

Buyer beware!
 
I have a friend just South of Daytona trying to sell a 70 C and B for $1200. They are both major projects and I've only got a couple pics. Here is the engine of the C.

I kinda remember a different engine in an MGC... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif
 
that's what I though.... then I though, maybe I'm not seeing the picture right... then I thought, I'll let someone else say something /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
 
That's a B four-banger. Two-thirds of a C tho! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
hah! So's a B........*snicker*
 
Found what looks to be a decent C but the price is quite a bit more than I was hoping to pay. I will continue to pursue it though.

Thanks all.

Bruce
