1960 MG A Roadster

  • Chassis Number: GHN-L 84466
  • Engine Number: 16GA-U 15691
This MGA was discovered after more than 35 years in dry storage. It has been driven less than 19,000 documented miles since it was delivered new to its first owner, Mr. Robert W. Durham by Consolidated Motors in Long Beach, California. It remained with Mr. Durham until 1977 or 1978 (its 1979 California registration shows a transfer to Melvin Durham.) The third owner was Mr. Stephen Newby, in the Seattle area, who obtained a British Leyland Motor Heritage certificate issued September 3, 2014. The certificate shows that the car was completed and delivered for shipment to the US on January 25, 1960, finished in GR26 Dove Grey with red seats, black carpets and tonneau, and dark gray folding convertible top. The options included were a heater, windshield washer, and wire wheels fitted with whitewall tires.

This MGA has 18,416 total miles and has five original Dunlop Gold Seal bias-ply white-wall tires. It has its original folding top, original side curtains, complete tool set and bag, knock-on hammer, King Dick jack, air pump, and spare wheel with its original fabric spare wheel cover, an original and unused spare John Bull fan belt, and its original starting crank.
