Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1960 MGA 1600 Coupe is a running project with a 1.5L inline-four engine, four-speed manual transmission, and a red interior. While it features classic elements like a banjo steering wheel and luggage rack, it also has noted rust issues, non-functioning brakes, and some interior electrical problems, indicating a need for significant restoration.

Sold for $6,600, this MGA project is presented as a car that has spent considerable time in storage. Its mechanical and cosmetic condition, including treated rust and brake issues, suggests it's best suited for a buyer looking for a restoration candidate rather than a turn-key classic.
