This particular MK 2 is a recent barn find out of Florence, Arizona. The previous owner was a doctor who passed away in 1997. His wife immediately put the car in storage and there it sat until she passed away this year. I purchased the car from their son. The car saw sunlight for the first time in 20 years when I pulled it out of the barn. After cleaning 20 years of dust I had the car serviced. All fluids were drained and replaced. It got all new hoses and belts and a new battery. It also received a complete tune up and the brakes were checked and serviced. The car fires right up and the engine purrs.

The interior is in very nice condition and needs nothing. The body is totally rust free and straight. The paint is faded and has some chips and scrapes but still look good and has a very nice patina. The tires look good but will need replaced due to age.

Overall this MK 2 is a car to enjoy as it is or take it to the next level by giving it a restoration. Now is the time to buy these MK 2 competition MGs before the prices soar. If you have any questions please call Ken at 602-882-6162. This MG is located in sunny Mesa, AZ.
