NOW SOLD to Dave in PA.

If you are looking for a great sportscar at a great price, this Miata is worth a serious look. It’s fun, fast, reliable and solid. It’s also comfortable and fits a wide range of people (without the limitations of smaller cockpits on most classic English cars).

Why a Miata on this site?

I bought this particular example from a friend last fall, and we have since put a few thousand hassle-free miles on the car. The odometer now shows just over 92,000 miles. This is a good one to own since it is a special edition with a great color scheme. Now, it’s time to make room for a new one (an ND) so this one has to go.

It’s hard not to love Miatas… they do everything well. They don’t have the cuteness of a Bugeye (and there’s a bit more plastic than I prefer) but overall it’s an extremely competent sports car that you can jump into and drive without hassle. And it has weather gear that actually works including a brand new top we just fit to the car!

There’s a lot about these cars that anyone can love. This particular car has about 93,000 miles on it and has been very well-maintained. Everything works and it drives really well. The car was garaged all of its life by a single owner, (who sold me the car).

The new top looks great and has a zip down rear window, a delight if you want lots of airflow and shade!

This is a very nice example of a very desirable car!

So if you’re looking for a very useable and fun convertible that may also appreciate in value, this car and the price can’t be beat. In addition, this particular car is the last year of the NA series and being an M Edition, it also should outpace other Miatas as they continue to increase in value.

M Spec cars in 1997, BTW, come with a full compliment of special features, including a Nardi wood shift knob and parking brake handle, 15″ polished 6-spoke alloy wheels with high-performance tires, cut pile carpeting, stainless sill plates, air conditioning (sadly, not working on this example), Premium Sound System with CD player and headrest speakers, exterior badge package , M Edition logo on seatbacks and tachometer, custom floor mats, and the Mazda “popular equipment package” which included: power steering, leather-wrapped steering wheel, power mirrors, Torsen limited slip differential, cruise control, power windows, power antenna, and rear sub-frame brace.

Additionally, the M Edition Miatas were painted a special color not available on any other Miata. In 1997 that color was called Marina Green Mica, and all 1997 M Edition Miatas were painted this color, and all of them were outfitted with tan interiors.

Give a call if you’d like to adopt this one! We can deliver it anywhere in America and it needs nothing… just a new driver to enjoy. Tires are from 12 of 2022. Click “read more” below for the full compliment of photos!

NOW SOLD to Alan in TN. Congratulations on taking home this beautiful A!

This is an exceptionally well-restored and rare MGA-the last of the breed! And restored right in the right colors! The correct original 1622 CC engine in this car is hard to find and it runs great!

We sold this car four years ago to a great home in California and we now have it back again!

Here is a rare opportunity to purchase a vehicle out of my own personal collection! This is a 1962 MGA 1622 Mark II. This car was prepared for concours judging when it was restored in Canada about 20 years ago, and it has been a dry weather driver ever since. It’s been used very little in that period and it remains in excellent shape. The underside is impressive; the interior is beautiful, with leather seats and the proper Mark II deluxe dashboard.

If you’re unfamiliar, the Mark II was the last of the MGAs; they are able to be distinguished from their Mark I brethren by their horizontal tail lights and more sculptural rear fenders, as well as a recessed grill that’s a little different from the earlier cars. In late 1961, the Mark II came along and was the shortest production run for the breed, producing just over 8,000 cars in its 2 year pruduction run before the MGB came out in 1963 and replaced it.

NOW SOLD to Dominic in PA! Congrats on taking home this beautiful B!

Here’s a rare opportunity to buy a very special classic car.

These metal dash MGBs were the best of the breed, with fewer external lights (no reflectors or back-up lights) and no buzzers and plastic (like on later cars) and maximum power (they have the most HP of the breed). Add to that $40K invested by two prior owners and you have a special opportunity! The car is completely sorted, with no punch list (mechanicals have all been gone through) and ready to enjoy.

I am quite bullish on these early GTs. They are gorgeous. The fastback is a very sexy shape. The interior is delicious-comfortable and nostalgic. The giant steering wheel is well-mated to the balance of the car and just plain fun to grip. I’ve kept my own personal ’67 GT for the past 15 or so years for these reasons… this is a car that punches above its weight and for not a lot of money you can have a car that turns heads everywhere.

Add to this one an upgraded buttery smooth fully synchronized Miata transmission, new lever shocks at all four corners and plush new Michelin XAS tires. The ride is excellent. Handling is excellent. Utility is excellent, courtesy of the functional hatchback. This is one of my favorite cars (next to Bugeyes, of course) and it is really hard to find a solid well-prepared one. So I hope you’ll give this one a serious look!

This 1966 MGB GT has been through our shop several times and each time gets even better! Check out the video below to learn more!

I have my own so I am biased… but I believe this to be one of the best classic cars that I have owned. Here’s why… it’s very comfortable, particularly for taller drivers. It holds a lot of gear. It has tons of style. It’s really fun to drive. It cruises well. It looks like a million bucks. It has a very sleek and sexy shape (much more novel than the roadster).

The pre-68 cars are the ones to have because of their superior metal dash and vintage period gauges and feel. They have more power than later cars, better ride height, chrome bumpers, no backup lights for a cleaner vintage look, best badges, best grill, no side reflectors, etc!!!

We have done a massive amount of work on this car the past several years for its prior owners. We put in an all new leather interior and carpet kit to make the interior strikingly nice. We installed period-looking three-point retractable seat belts when we restored the interior, which are mounted on custom brackets we fabricated, and entire interior is now beautiful.

We also went through and replaced any perishable mechanical items, such as new rubber hoses and oil cooler lines, as well as new rear wire wheel splines and brakes, so the entire car has been refreshed. Most recently, we upgraded the transmission to a Mazda five-speed transmission and fitted new Michelin XAS 180R14 tires, as well as a new steering rack, rebuilt carburetors, and so much more! This one is easy to drive, and beautiful! Check out the build sheet below from 2022 and 2024.

NOW SOLD! Congratulations to Harold in Arizona!

Lots of car for the money! Tons of fun! We fitted the convertible top and side curtains this week-it’s all in good shape; give it a look and give us a call if want to transform your summer into a great and fun adventure!

I’m in love with this Morgan and this week added a couple videos below so you can see if the passion extends to you as well. There’s something very liberating about a perfectly weathered sports car that requires no worry. It’s exactly the opposite of how I feel about a nice 911, which is an object to be protected, in my humble opinion, and a Morgan like this is an object to be used. Not that a 911 isn’t an entirely usable object with far more utility than any classic British roadster… but there’s something very liberating about having a car that’s this much fun and you don’t have to worry about it. See if you agree and if so, give us a call. We’ll be happy to send it your way!

Check out the ALL NEW walkaround tour above!

If you like perfect patina, check out this car! This is a true classic, you can just feel the Morgan heritage when you open the door … feels like getting into a vintage biplane. This one is special since it is a rare factory car built with an upgraded 1600 Kent Crossflow power plant.

Check out the driving video below for maximum Morgan fun!

The car also feels like the ultimate Jean jacket; weathered, worn, but still your favorite.

This car is not replaceable. This patina, this power, this supple leather semi-bench seat, (and a wonderful roar) is not so easy to recreate. Call to discuss adopting quick because I am giving serious thought to keeping this one! There is something so liberating about a weathered yet solid classic, open air, comfortable (enough), and a blast to drive!

Cold start video above, along with a controls feature!

The convertible top is included and fits well. Nice side curtains are also included (see pictures). Rubber gaskets are missing on the side curtains but it would be easy to fit new ones.

Now SOLD to Susan in CA! Congratulations on fulfilling this lifelong dream!

Check out the ALL NEW driving video below to see this fantastic MGBGT in action! Supercharger, Mazda five-speed, so much more!

Offered at $34,995

This is a striking 1970 MGBGT with great upgrades, including an Eaton supercharger (with new SU carb), header, new stainless exhaust, Miata 5 Speed transmission conversion, sharp knock-off minilite wheels, aluminum radiator, K & N lifetime air filter, electronic ignition in a new distributor, GPS speedo, new steering wheel and more. We added all these mods to this strong car for the current owner who has asked us to sell it for him. He put about 2000 miles on the car and he is reluctantly ready for the car to move to a new home.

This is a good one, it’s quite hard to find a solid GT with no rust like this one. Glass is good, fit is good, interior is great, save one small crack in the dashboard. Turns 3200 RPMs at 70 mph in 5th, making this a really nice all day cruiser that also lights up turns nicely too. Quite user-friendly, solid, stiff, weatherproof with hatchback convenience. This is a very lovable and special MG! 

To build one like this would cost a lot more than the asking price! Don’t miss your chance to own this stunning example of pure British fun!

NOW SOLD to Bryan in PA! Congratulations on taking home this special car!

We just got through putting a ton of work into this spectacular machine to make it even better, including installing three point retractable seat belts, new premium front lever shocks, a front sway bar kit, fresh battery, a complete rebuild of the rear suspension and axle including a freshly rebuilt 3.9 differential, new leaf spring bushings, fresh rear wheel cylinders and axle seals, and more! New custom exhaust header to allow the upgraded Datsun engine to breathe its best! This is a head- turning Spridget!

The buyer of this car is looking for a stunning Spridget re-interpretation with all the best upgrades. That buyer wants a turnkey car, with all the work and service already done. Fly-in, drive home. We have sorted-out anything needing attention so that you get to enjoy from day one! No need to buy it and wait for it to be fixed or rebuilt!

This is a superb Spridget that has been appropriately modded with really cool upgrades. “Sterling” is a 1964 Midget, dressed-up with a custom leather interior, Stayfast top and tonneau, new wire wheels and Michelin XAS tires, Datsun 1300 engine, Datsun fully synchronized five-speed transmission and more! Paint work is excellent. Color is stunning. This is an excellent restoration.

This Datsun engine (which is about the same size as a 1275 A series engine) is superior because of the lighter and better aluminum head and five main bearing crankshaft, far stronger than the three main bearing crankshaft you’d find in a 1275 Spridget. Because this car is built in a non-stock color with non-stock leather seats and other upgrades, that Datsun engine is a nice upgrade on a car where conforming to originality is no longer important. It’s a powerful car and a great build. Plus that Datsun engine should be much more durable then the British counterpart. And the performance was also upgraded during a recent engine rebuild.

If you want a roll-up window sportscar that is unique and gorgeous, this is worth serious consideration! Check out the driving video below, up to 75 MPH!
