History

As confirmed by the accompanying Heritage Certificate, our matching numbers car was built in May / June 1969 and shipped to the USA as an LHD personal export in July 1969, the MGC was then returned to the UK in August 2017 to be registered DVG 781G. Following our acquisition of the car in 2018, we have carried out a considerable amount of work to the car at a cost exceeding £14000, details of which are available to a prospective purchaser, and are covered in brief in this description. The MG is both tax and MOT exempt. Introduced in late 1967, the MGC had a relatively short life span of only two years, the last models being made in 1969 with only 2034 RHD GT’s being produced. The UK's economic climate and escalating fuel prices eventually killed off the 3 litre MGC, with the last converted cars being sold by University Motor’s in 1970. Within the last decade the full potential of the MGC has been recognised and it is ideally suited for further tuning to the 3 Litre six cylinder engine providing a powerful Grand Tourer.
