This 1969 MG MGC roadster is described as a project and was acquired by the owner at J.N. Larson Chevrolet of Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1970. The car was subsequently stored from 1973 until 2005, after which it was repainted in British Racing Green and returned to storage where it has remained since. Power is provided by a running 2,912cc inline-six mated to a four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive, and features include 15″ wire wheels, chrome bumpers with overriders, a banjo-style steering wheel, and dual SU carburetors.
The car was reportedly factory-finished in Snowberry White and was repainted British Racing Green by Bumps Auto of Maple Plain, Minnesota, in 2005 following an extended period of storage.
Silver-painted 72-spoke 15” wire wheels are equipped with octagonal knock-offs and older Goodyear Corsa GT tires at each corner.
The interior is trimmed in black with a matching dashboard and door panels, and the seller notes worn leather seats and carpeting. A three-spoke banjo-style steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation including a tachometer, a 140-mph speedometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer displays 14k miles, with true mileage unknown.
Power is sent from the 2,912cc inline-six to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission equipped with overdrive.
