MG MGC and MGC GT
In 1967 BMC thought about replacing the Austin-Healey 3000, and the fastest way was to produce a version of the 2912cc C-series engine and shove it into an MGB body. But after 9000 sales, BMC thought better of this idea.

MG MGC GT 1967 front
MG MGC GT. To accomodate the 2912cc 6-cylinder engine, a large bonnet bulge was given to the MGC and a small 'teardrop' one for the carburretors.

MG MGC GT 1969 front
MG MGC GT. Launched in 1967 and intended to re place the Austin-Healey 3000, the MGC was part MGB body and part Austin-Healey 3-litre.

MG MGC GT 1969 rear
MG MGC GT. Only two years of production for this 3-litre GT.

MG MGC Roadster front
MG MGC Roadster. For just two years anf 9000 examples, the would-be Big Healey replacement combined a 2912cc 145bhp C-series engine with an adapted MGB body. The recipe tasted bad, and in 1969 British Leyland stopped mixing it.
