Sorry, Pete, no. This appears to be a "regular" MGA 1600. The MkII had  
completely different, horizontally oriented taillamps, while the original MGA  
1500 
had only the TR3-style L549 lamps with no L594 "beehive" lamps above as in  
the picture.
 
For a MkII rear shot, see:

Triumph Herald engine with   wings.
