MGB MK I. 1964
MGB

Burgundy in colour with chrome wires. The usual extensive financial outlay, never to be recovered, has been made to bring the car up to a high standard including re trimming (seats alone cost $2000), and a bare metal re spray. All chrome in good order. Fitted with electronic ignition, and a 5 speed Supra gear box which perfectly matches the slightly warm motor. An anti- run on device prevents the usual MBG run on at shut down. Selling due to advancing years.

A steal at $22,000

Austin Healey Sprite Mk1 (“Bugeye”)

sprite front

    sprite engine  sprite inside
I have owned this fun little car for 30 years. Originally my daily driver, it has been unregistered and stored in my garage for a number of years. I have receipts for $4,000 spent on suspension, steering, brakes, etc. It is a 1960-61 Australian assembled vehicle, with a later fibreglass bonnet. Condition is basically sound, but it needs a repaint, new soft-top and some tlc from someone who has the time to get it back on the road and enjoy it. Car is located in Canberra.

$14,000

MG Magnette ZB 1957

Magnette

   Inside  Engine

As featured in Wheel Spin Behind The Wheel Drive Test April 2012 pages 28-29. This article in part reads, “While the Magnette was appreciated in its day as a family sports saloon, the performance transformation demonstrated by Frank’s ZB takes this concept to a new level. Fast and flexible, this handsome and practical saloon has considerably higher levels of agility.” Very docile to drive. Upspecing includes a worked MGB motor, improved breathing through tuned carbies and headers, close ratio overdrive gearbox, suspension tweaks and extra rubber.

Reg. No. 05145.H

$13,500
