Buchanan MG on ebay.

No reserve! Only a day to run and has reached $8,000 so far. Someone's going to get a bargain I reckon. Could be you!
Buchanan MG

Believed to be a 1958 fiberglass body with MGA chassis & running gear
From research body appears to have been factory or owner modified to enclose front guards

Only 158 bodies ever produced with only around 25 cars still remaining

Engine is an MGA 1500 that looks to have been done up
Engine turns freely all be it a little tight as its been sitting in a garage for 50+ years
and will require a complete going over as would the gearbox and diff.

Fiberglass body is in good condition for its age being stored undercover, but will require finishing
( prime coated it when we found it to protect the fiberglass )

Wire wheels
 
Disc brakes front , drum brakes rear

Car rolls and steers

This would make a unique Race car , Hillclimb car , Historic/Classic , Club car or driver

Requires a full restoration

No reserve auction

Do not bid unless buying

Can assist with transport at purchasers expense
