About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Restored by Twin Cam specialist James Alcorn. Good older paint and brightwork. Slightly erratic panel fit, but maybe not any worse than it was when new. Clean, tight top. Clean underneath. Very good fully redone interior. Restored to the high standards that a rarer and more valuable Twin Cam MGA deserves, then lightly used. A lovely car.

Market commentary

$80k isn't at all an unreasonable offer for this car, but it is a very good Twin Cam and it's nearly as clean today as it was when it sold for $78,100 in Scottsdale seven years ago. The seller must have been doubly frustrated on Saturday, when another Twin Cam in not much better condition sold for a jaw-dropping $168k at Gooding.
