MG MGC 2,9 Roadster 1969
General description :
Den ligner en normal MG B - Men den ændrede form på motorhjælmen indikerer at noget er anderledes og det er netop for at gøre plads til den store 6-cylindrede motor som også var tiltænkt den større Austin 3-litre, MG C var egentlig tiltænkt som afløser for Austin's Healey 3000 ( big healey ), Men kunderne være svære at overtale til at til at vælge den lidt mindre MG med en stor motor og derfor havde C-modellen kun en levetid fra 1967-69 og med kun 8.999 stk producerede hvor af ca. halvdelen er roadsters så er C-modellen meget eftertragtet blandt entusiaster som vil have en MG de andre ikke har, Denne bil har stelnr. 8909 så een af de sidste producerede, Bilen er total restaueret i Danmark for en del år siden - men fremstår stadig meget flot og er virkelig velkørende, Bemærk de flotte trådhjul og de sorte lædersæder som passer godt til den flotte mørkeblå lak, Lige klar til at køre sommeren i møde, Ring gerne for yderligere info, Kontakt os for fremvisning af denne bil
