Here we have another "short" list of some one of a kind modified MGA. These have been specially prepared for racing, although there is often some crossover to street use. The determining factor here is that the car was known to be raced, or was obviously prepared for racing with the primary objective of maximizing performance, often within restraints of a certain competiton class.

Wide MGA Most race cars are more than just a fancy paint job, and they tend to be put together fairly well. This one has the entire chassis and body widened enough to carry a V8 engine in style, and wide tires which fit nicely within the stock profile fenders.
