Two MGA 2+2's

Four seat MGA

MGA 2=2 Here's a more recent one. These photos and information were sent by Brian McCullough who did much restoration work, other than the body and paint work.

The two plus two was built back in the 1970’s, not altered by my shop. This car was last driven some time before 1980. The expression for a 2+2 is quite literally “two occasional four” because it is misrable to even consider anyone over the age of 4!

MGA 2=2 This car was a parts car when the owner started. He had never owned, driven or seen another MGA. The body shop that did the body panel replacement and painting did not know, nor did the owner know of the body mods. MGA rear seats are as practical as Spridget rear seats. Not at all. This car did have a rear seat in it, but was removed, and Scarborough Faire offered us a set of custom panels back there similar to the originals from our patterns.

Leaving home without the top. Yup. The top is just not going to look right- this is why the car is coming back. It is to have a top frame fitting simulating the MGB removable/stowable top. We will also be looking at a tanneau cover bar at the same time- full length tannuea cover- biscuit colour. The soft top snaps are all there, but we are also looking into a hard top. Know anyone who has the rounded ones here in the Minnesota area? :-)

Oh, it also has an MGB 1800 engine with supercharger, 3.909:1 final drive, MGB front suspension and MGB brakes all around.
