1959 MGA: A Carb Clean Away

I wish that sellers were right just 75% of the time about all it will take to get a car running. If it’s so simple, why don’t they do it? Or even pay a specialist to, since it won’t… more»

1961 MG MGA: Barn Racer #2

About two weeks ago we featured a crusty red MGA that I wanted badly and it looks like I have been given a second chance! Well, in mocking way I suppose. It’s too far away and the asking price… more»

Triple MGB Stash

While hunting around for MGB stuff, I found this package deal for three MGBs and a nice stash of parts. Two roadsters and a GT are included, but they have all suffered bad resprays and/or bodywork. The owner has… more»

1960 MG MGA: Barn Racer

For some strange reason, British sports cars have been on my mind as of late. So, when I spotted a light blue MGA on my way home from work the other day, it really got my blood going. I… more»

Motoring Monday: Jags, A Landy, & An MGA!

There is a plethora of British projects on eBay right now; I’m curious as to what you would most like to be working on! The really rough 1954 XK120 is located in Miami, Florida and is offered here, currently… more»

Rare Pair: 1939 & 1938 MG TAs

Later MG T-Series cars may be quite common around here, but just try to find a TA. I dare you! Only about 3k were ever produced and they were never officially imported to our shores, so the fact that… more»

1971 MGB GT: Safety Fast!

Some of you questioned the fire sale of my 145. Well, here’s the answer. This little beauty popped up on craigslist and I couldn’t resist. This 1971 MGB GT isn’t perfect, but it has had extensive work done to… more»

Another Pair: 1966 And 1974 MGBs

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about a pair of rubber-bumper MGBs that were available as entry-level classics. Imagine my surprise this morning to find two of the more desirable (to most) chrome bumper models on eBay, both… more»

Junkyard Jewel: 1969 MGC GT

We have discussed the dangers of buying a car through Copart before. They deal in salvage vehicles and they don’t provide much information, so it can be very risky. Still, every once in a while we run across something… more»

All Curves And Rust: 1958 MGA

As mentioned in a recent Barn Finds MG TD post, the designers and engineers at MG had ideas for a successor to the T-Series long before they were actually able to introduce the MGA. The long gestation period led… more»

Dusty Roadster: 1953 MGTD

After the colonies “discovered” the sports car with the postwar MGTC, MG was quick to capitalize on that success. Unfortunately, the engineers weren’t able to proceed with a modern sports car as quickly as they would have liked, and… more»
