This 1960 MG MGA 1600 Mk I roadster is finished in Old English White over black leather and is powered by a 1.6L inline-four mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes driving lights, side mirrors, a luggage rack, 15″ four-lug steel wheels with hubcaps, drum brakes, and bucket seats. This MGA 1600 Mk I is now offered on dealer consignment at no reserve with a tonneau cover, an MG-branded leather bag, spare parts, an owner’s manual, service manuals, and a clean California title. All proceeds from the sale, including the BaT buyer’s fee, will go to the Boys & Girls Club of Malibu, a 501(c)(3) that provides the community’s children and teens with a safe environment to learn new skills, socialize, and find social and emotional support.
The car is finished in Old English White, and exterior equipment includes a bright body-contour grille, driving lights, a badge bar, side mirrors, a rear luggage rack, and bright front and rear bumpers with bumperettes. The car is not equipped with a soft top, though a tonneau cover accompanies the vehicle.
The 15″ four-lug steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are mounted with Nexen SB-802 tires measuring 165/80. The car is equipped with an independent front suspension with coil springs and hydraulic dampers as well as a rack-and-pinion steering system. Stopping power is provided by front disc and rear drum brakes.
The bucket seats are upholstered in black leather and are accented by a color-coordinated center armrest and door panels. Interior appointments include a dashboard-mounted rearview mirror, lap belts, and door map pockets.
The three-spoke steering wheel is mounted to an adjustable steering column and fronts Jaeger instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 82k miles, and total mileage is unknown.
The 1.6L inline-four is equipped with a single carburetor with a K&N air filter.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
Upon completion of the auction, the winning bidder will pay the selling dealer directly, who will then donate the total sale amount to the Boys & Girls Club of Malibu, a 501(c)(3) organization.
