However, this particular twin cam has been elevated to the level of a 'special' in the era correct parlance, benefitting from custom bodywork which eschews the traditional bumpers and MGA grille, for a far more stunning look reminiscent of the Jaguar D-type and AC cobra of its day.
Having those curves Finished in a rich navy blue is complemented further by the contrasting red leather interior with matching dash and the beautiful period correct MG wood steering wheel.
Having an interior as gorgeous as this as this only adds to the driving experience, however we believe the drivetrain needs little help in that department.
