A NEW 1957 MG MGA 1500 2-Door Roadster

Beautiful MGA restoration with Sebring front and rear styling. The 2 year frame off restoration was completed in September of 2015  The MGA sports a great performing  MGB 1800 3 main engine with a 3 syncro 4 speed transmission and 391 differential gear for highway cruising. The goal of the restoration was to blend  racing and nostalgic themes. while adding or improving safety. serviceability and drive-ability features. In keeping with the Sebring theme the radio is deleted; however the antenna is installed for future radio installation if desired.   I like to describe this car as a new 1957 MGA roadster. It gets a lot of looks and comments. The MGA has won a couple of trophies at local car shows. The top is  from England and features a custom a zippered rear window. You can drive with the top up during those blistering hot days and still get a top down fell without getting a sun burn. The towel in the photo covers the window to keep from scratching it.
