1964 356C LHD coupe - Provisionally Sold

Post by sprintstar67 »

The time has come for a complete change, so due to my epic ongoing house project and desire to try something else, I am selling my lovely 356C.

She was imported from California approx 5 years ago by MGA specialist Bob West. I was lucky enough to see the car at the time, and she could be best described as very solid and original with tired paint and interior.
After being sold the first UK owner completed a full repaint of the very straight bodywork also whilst at it fitting new rubbers, new headliner, new carpets, full re-trim in leather, and anything else that required overhaul or replacement was seen to also.
Second UK owner completed a full engine rebuild with final assembly by Strasse of Leeds. He also overhauled all the brakes with new discs, pads and flexible hoses etc.
I've had the car since last year following the sale of my Speedster, and in that time apart from driving her alot, have replaced the incorrect 009 distributor with a "123ignition" electronic ignition system which is superb. I've also replaced both carbs with reconditioned ones from Roger Bray which made things a whole lot smoother.
There is a raft of bills with this car, both from the US and UK, which show that there has been no expense spared over the last few years.

She's not concours but she is very good

£22k. No p/exs thanks.

Tel Andy 01706 838527 (Rochdale)

PS I'm off to China on the 11th May on business for two weeks, so won't be contactable.

Cheers and thanks for looking, Andy.
