About the MGB GT Coune Berlinette

The MGB GT Coune Berlinette (1967-1968) was a Belgian coachbuilt conversion by Jacques Coune. The fastback body replaced the standard GT roofline with a more rakish design. Only 56 were built, making this one of the rarest MGB variants. Contemporary road tests praised the improved aerodynamics.
