Description

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 - Competition Cars on Friday the 22nd of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

This well-sorted, FIA-papered, 1963 MGB was purchased by our vendor in 2019 from Oselli Engineering, having been used by them as their works car for a variety of events over previous years.

Primarily, it was bought to run in the Spa 6-Hours and did indeed run that year in the 3-Hour race, however, with the arrival of COVID in 2020 and no motor racing anywhere for the foreseeable future, the decision was taken to comprehensively rebuild the car. This work included an engine, gearbox and differential rebuild, all carried out by the renowned Peter May Engineering Ltd.

Fully prepared for the 2023 Spa 6-hours, it subsequently finished well running strongly with an overall midfield result. Since then it has competed in the Guards Trophy with the H.S.C.C. and most recently has served as a school car on track days training up a family member.

With FIA HTP current till 31/12/2029, it's supplied with its V5C and a good spares package with endurance events in mind. The spares include rear brakes and springs, a rear wheel cylinder, front wheel bearing kit, oil filter, clutch slave cylinder, headlight, front crossmember and springs, gearbox mounting, clutch release bearing, brake pads, anti-roll bar drop link, new spark plugs, control arm, oil pump, timing chain, brake bleed screws, and five wheels and tyres.

Well presented in classic sixties Iris Blue with a white hard top and silver Minilites, combined with its Oselli pedigree, this is a super entry-level FIA racer with access to some lovely events and must represent value in todays rarefied Historic scene.
