The Appeal

El MGC GT es el hermano mayor de seis cilindros del mucho más común MGB GT, producido únicamente durante dos años modelo entre 1967 y 1969. Su seis en línea de 3.0 litros aporta un carácter más refinado y de gran autonomía, lo que ha hecho que el modelo gane popularidad constante entre los entusiastas que valoran su rareza y su capacidad de crucero sin esfuerzo.

Este ejemplar de 1969 ha sido sometido a una restauración total, que incluyó despojar el coche hasta la carcasa desnuda, repintarlo en MG Tartan Red y tratar el chasis para prevenir la oxidación. El motor se actualizó a especificación Stage 3, se reconstruyeron la caja de cambios y el diferencial originales, y la suspensión, frenos, cableado, interior y gran parte del cromo fueron renovados o sustituidos. Más detalles de los trabajos realizados se encuentran a continuación.

Habiendo recorrido aproximadamente 3.000 millas desde la restauración, el coche ha estado en almacenamiento en los últimos dos años. Arranca, se mueve con soltura y frena, pero se beneficiaría de un servicio completo y volver a ponerse a punto.
