Summary

This is a stunning Mk1 1500 MGA Roadster.  Imported from Florida in 1993 she was then stripped back to the frame and restored leaving no bolt unturned and subsequently converted to RHD.  The history file contains the Florida Certificate of Title, original Owners Handbook, many past MOT's dating back to 1993 and detailed pictures of the restoration showing the car in its very good condition when it arrived from Florida and stage by stage as it was stripped back to the frame and rebuilt upto the finished article we have today.  This MGA has been in the same ownership for the last 24 years since it was imported in 1993.
