This one will take some REAL imagination and a ton of extra time, but might well be one of the neatest cars at the even when done.

Located in Kingston, MA 02364

 

I have a 1958 MGA front clip with ther fenders bonded in to make for a one piece flip up option

A front hood

A rear clip 

Two rear fenders

A rear trunk

Two doors

 

Kinda thinking that all of these body parts could be bolted/bonded together to make a complete lift off body shell.

 

Also have:

Windshield frame and upright supports

Dash board

Knobs and such

Steering shaft/column

Head and tail light assemblies

Seats; need recovering and some fussing

Number plate bracket

Emblems

Grill and front emblem

Gas tank

Chassis

Rear end and springs

Just enough to cobble together the beginnings of a pretty cool Challenge Car at a nice Challenge friendly price.

 

Asking $500 for everything.

In reply to MuSTANK :

you've posted this (or similar) before and I was tempted back then, and tempted again.  I really wish I had pole barn to stash this into.  Good Luck with the Sale.  Someone's going to get a smoking good deal.

Oh man. Do you have any pictures?

Like Indy, I was tempted back then and still am.

Yup ! This is the trimmed down Challenge Friendly race version. More of an El Cheapo collection of parts and pieces that comprise a basic shell and chassis rather than all of the necessary parts to build an completely restored/resurrected MGA.

As mentioned, enough to build the beginnings of a one piece lift-off body race car. The charm would lie in the relative rarity and charm of it being a vintage MGA.

Same track and wheelbase as an VW Beetle if anyone is crazy enough to try it . . . lightweight MGA shell on a VW pan with a decent dune buggy engine, could be cool.

I can post some photographs here. It's terrible weather here right now, so it'll have wait a spell as the stuff is out back. Have the Mustang up for sale as well and need to take photos of that first. If you don't mind a wait, I'll have them posted in another few days.

You'll need to log in to post.
