Description

MGA 1500 Coupe "Barn Find" FOR SALE
Titled as a 1958 (USA dealer sell date). The VIN # H_R14319542 has a 1956 build date of Aug/56, pre-production of the Sept/56 official first production VIN of 20671. The above VIN omits the second letter designation of "D" roadster or "M" Coupe. The coupe production was integrated onto the existing roadster assembly line and this coupe is believed to be one of a few that were put through the line to ready and troubleshoot any problems when production commenced in Sept/56.
The related verbal history when discovered, purchased and moved to Portland in 2007 was the coupe was a one owner Tucson, Arizona car from new. The earliest title certificate we have is Arizona dated, 1973 and reaffirmed by the state in 1975. A restoration in Tucson was started in the early '70s, with a full running chassis (drivetrain/suspension/engine & gearbox rebuilt) and some body panel work done. At that point the doors were closed and the lights turned off for almost 40 years ago.
We purchased and imported the car out of Portland (all border importation documents and duty paid etc) into Canada (Vancouver, BC) in 2009 as a "shop project". The coupe arrived here in pieces, complete minus front windshield/rear center glass/front valance/door card upholstery/LHS wooden floor panel & one seat frame, with boxes of extra parts and new panel pieces (rockers/B pillars etc). We worked on the restoration until 2011, when we moved shop to a larger location and rolled it into the storage area to again sit in the dark, as time is dedicated to client restorations.
