Registered 1st August 1969 this series II ‘B’ Roadster has been prepared to MSA C2 Historic Rally Spec and fitted with a Peter Burgess Big Valve ported head. The engine (1798cc) also has a balanced crank, lightweight flywheel and Piper 285 cam with a Weber 45 carb. with a 4 sp/OD gearbox. The end result of all this is an impressive dyno print out showing 141Bhp.
Much of this work was completed in 2014/ 15 although the body was said to have been restored in c2005. The car is supplied with a large history file of invoices for parts used with a list of the full works completed. Having been competed in Historic Rally car events it remains in generally good order although there are some scars in the body and paint, but the general structure of the shell remains good.
This fun and great driving car is eligible for a whole host of Historic rallies, tours and events and may also gain entry to some MG Car Club and non FIA track races on an invitation ticket. A ready go car it is showing 27,000 miles and has UK registration documents.
