1969 MGCGT Coupe

Vehicle Description

The MG C Coupe is one of the rarer MG models, with just 4,457 examples made between 1967 and 1969. It was a higher-performance version of the MGB with a six-cylinder engine, taller gearing, torsion bar front suspension, and larger fifteen-inch wire wheels. A distinctive hood bulge is the main visual difference that sets this car apart from its four-cylinder sibling. This 1969 MGC GT was acquired from a Massachusetts estate. The prior owner bought the car in British Columbia and imported it in 2013. It has been stored for the last nine years. We have gotten the car running with a battery and fresh fuel, but it will need a thorough recommissioning service before use. &#

Recent work includes:

Installed a new fuel pump and fitted a regulator. Replaced the battery. Drained and replaced fuel and fuel filter. The car would benefit from a carburetor overhaul and tune-up. Bled brakes and clutch – the brake master cylinder leaks and should be replaced Topped off other fluids.

The car does not have any major modifications as far as we can see. There is no sign of wrinkling or damage in the frame rail. We don’t see evidence of accident damage, extremely solid undercarriage, needs a paint job.

Additional information:

The radio was replaced at some point and has a tape deck. The right fender paint does not match the original. The car has been painted in various places such as on the hood and body.

Work Needed:
Runs and drives. It runs a little ragged when driving slower, needs brakes.

The paint is peeling on the hood and right front fender. The body is chipped in places. Tires are old and have dry rot and need to be replaced. Brake rotors are rusted. Brake master cylinder leaks and needs to be replaced. The brakes work to move the car but need to be replaced as they are not safe for the road. The carburetor needs to be rebuilt. The passenger side door handle button is loose. The steering wheel emblem needs to be secured back in place. The interior leather on the passenger side door has some shrinkage caused by getting wet at some point in the past. Rear seat is vinyl.
