What is NAMGAR?
North American MGA Register
The Register was established in 1975, with the sole objective of promoting the restoration, preservation, and enjoyment of the MGA.
As of January 2010, over 7,700 cars have been registered, with a membership of over 2,300. The Register currently shows 3,472 MGA's, 206 Magnettes, and 16 Variants. In addition, there are a number of specific interest groups affiliated with NAMGAR - MGA Coupe, MGA 1600 Deluxe, Z Magnette Group (ZMG), Elva Courier, MGA 1800, MGA Twin Cam, and MG Vintage Racers.
While NAMGAR was created to specifically serve the North American MGA enthusiast, we now boast a world wide membership with over 15 countries represented. NAMGAR is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of a Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Treasurer, Registrar and Editor. These 5 people are assisted by many other volunteers in order to bring you our magazine and annual events.
Valuable Publication
NAMGAR's award winning publication, MGA! is produced bimonthly, and provides information on parts sources, technical assistance, classifieds, and interesting feature articles of interest to MGA owners and enthusiasts. This magazine is the life-line of the organization.
