1959 MG MGA 1600 Coupe

The vintage vehicle is a 1959 MG MGA 1600 Coupe, manufactured in the United Kingdom during the 1950s. This classic car embodies sleek design elements of its era, with distinctive features such as its open two-seater configuration and the iconic 'bulge' designed to accommodate the spare wheel. It retains its original British Racing Green paint job, showcasing the vehicle's rich history and timeless charm. The MGA represents one of 711 coupes imported to North America during its model year, making it a rare find even within circles of vintage car enthusiasts. This particular example was acquired by its current owner in 2012 as a non-running project, but substantial work has since been carried out to restore its original glory, including body and chassis repairs, interior reupholstery, and engine rebuilds. Despite being situated currently in Portland, Oregon, the MGA's United States-based provenance can be confirmed through its specifications, which include coordinates indicating its approximate location at latitude 45.5435 degrees North and longitude 122.674 degrees West.
