Take the spirited character of the popular MGB, add a powerful six-cylinder engine, and you get the MGC-GT—one of Britain’s most distinctive sports cars of the 1960s.

Under the hood is a 2.9-liter inline-six producing about 145 horsepower, giving the MGC considerably more power than its four-cylinder MGB sibling. The GT’s sleek fastback design added a touch of practicality, with room for passengers and luggage while retaining the fun-to-drive personality of a true British sports car.

MGC production lasted only from 1967 to 1969, making this final-year example a special piece of British automotive history. It represents MG’s attempt to combine sports-car excitement with the power and comfort needed for longer journeys.
