Thu, 05/19/2016 - 10:00am

Buy the ticket, win the ride! You could be the next owner of a beautiful, red 1966 MG MGB, while supporting the Owls Head Transportation Museum (OHTM). The Museum announces its third annual vehicle raffle. Tickets are $100 each and only 999 will be sold. All proceeds benefit Museum programs. Raffle tickets can be purchased by phone, online at owlshead.org and onsite at the museum. Terms and conditions apply, and can be viewed at owlshead.org.

The 1966 MG MGB Roadster, with its reputation for sporty performance and its classic lines, are some of the reasons why the MGB has remained a beloved classic since it was introduced in the early 1960s.

With 60,825 true miles on the clock, this beautiful MGB came to Maine from Florida in 2015. It is a superlative example of a well-sorted and well-maintained MGB that bears a near flawless restoration. In addition to this wonderful British classic, the winner will receive accessories to complete the MGB experience; including a brand new fully outfitted classic wicker picnic basket with upscale food and drink service for four, and a brand new classic tartan wool picnic blanket by Pendleton™. These items are designed to fit perfectly on the luggage rack of the MGB, completing the classic look and feel of this head-turning automobile.

The Owls Head Transportation Museum is proud to offer the winner of the 2016 raffle a chance to make the dream of owning a British sports car into a reality. The lucky winner of the 1966 MGB Roadster will be drawn on August 27 at the Barnstormers Ball, the museum's annual gala fundraising event.
