EXTERIOR
Squat and purposeful. this MGC looks every part the racer for the road with its blistered arches and having been in the care of 355 Restorations the car looks terrific in traditional British Racing Green. As an all steel replica the paintwork remains in excellent order. with no cosmetic reactions or imperfections that can affect aluminium panels. whilst the bright work around the windscreen and windows remains in good condition free of pitting and corrosion. Details such as the towing eyes. battery cut off. bonnet strap. brake ducts and perspex light covers point to a determined accuracy in replicating the endurance racing special.
-
INTERIOR
Safety and style are the order of the day once you have clicked into the four point harness and nestle warmly into the superbly supportive bucket seats. The padded dash. door cards and carpet set are pleasingly clean with good fit and finish. whilst you are left in no doubt of this MG's competitive intentions with the roll cage. fire extinguishers and offset rev counter. Again. attention to detail is key with every switch and toggle marked for a purpose. Both the Moto Lita and gearbox fall easily to hand with a built in competition overdrive affixed to the gear knob.
-
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The straight 6 engine is fitted with triple 45mm weber carburettors on a stage 2 uprated engine producing 195bhp on the rolling road. This is mated to a rebuilt gearbox with a competition overdrive and AP racing clutch all fitted by MG Motorsport.
-
WHEELS. TYRES & BRAKES
The Sebring provenance continues with weight saving Minilite alloy wheels in 15 x 8j wrapped in track focused Dunlop Formula R tyres displaying good life. The front discs show well. with no lipping. scoring or pitting and with a recent fluid replacement. rear drums and front calipers the car performs well. braking true and pulling the car up quickly in a straight line.

HISTORY FILE
UVP 737H started life in South Africa. where it was first subject to a restoration prior to arriving in the UK in 1999. The car has since been treated to a full cosmetic overhaul with 355 Restorations of Dunsfold to the tune of £10k with custom arches and a full windows out respray. whilst also having been under the stewardship of MG Motorsports who performed a full mechanical overhaul; rebuilding the gearbox. inserting a competition overdrive and an AP Racing clutch.
-
Having taken part in LE JOG it has been used sparingly on track days and annual visits to the Goodwood and Revival events. It is fully equipped for further amateur motorsport and trackdays and ready to go.
-
The car has a stack of paperwork and bills to support its new lease of life as a fitting nod to the Motorsports variant. with every MOT certificate since importation and certification from the Heritage Trust. Pleasingly the history file also features plenty of correspondence between the current keeper and the former South African owner.
