MG MGB Conv (1971)
for sale

Price: US $4,500.00

Description:

This is my 1971 MGB. She has the rare and highly sought after factory overdrive with wire wheels and very desirable chrome bumper car. The car is selling this week to the highest bidder and is priced well below current market value. If you know vintage British cars you know how rare this car is and the factory overdrive makes it all that much more rare. Massive amount of work just done so please take time to read the auction in its entirety. The car is located at my house in Charlotte NC 28209 and the car can be seen / driven anytime during the auction. Clear North Carolina state issued title in my name and address.
Heritage: I was told by the previous owner that the engine is original and she is a numbers matching car. It appears to be a numbers matching car based on the research I've done but you should do your own research to verify it being such. After your research you can order a British Heritage Certificate from England for around $50 to certifying her as being a true numbers matching car which will greatly increase the cars value when you pass her along if you decide to sell her in the distant future. The cars commission date is December 1970, the commission number is GHN5UB 22959 G the engine number is 18GK-WE-H 4481. .
Mechanically: The car runs great and was just serviced along with other major work. The car starts right up with no issues, ticks, smoke or shacking about. Holds good oil pressure at about 60+ lbs. The car recently had a complete tune up with new ignition wires, spark plugs, distributor cap, rotor button, new ignition coil, new air filters, oil change, oil filter, radiator fluid serviced, new fan belt, new brake master cylinder, new clutch master cylinder, new clutch slave cylinder, new inline fuel filter, new fuel pump installed and the transmission and rear end fluids where topped off. Also, the carburetors where professionally rebuilt and a brand new gas tank and fuel sending unit where installed. Overdrive Transmission: Yes this car has the rare and highly sought after overdrive transmission. Overdrive works perfectly in both 3rd and 4th gears. Again, the overdrive is working. Electrical's: Good condition with the following items in working order. Headlights work , front & rear turn signals work, front & rear running lights work, brake lights work, windshield wipers work and the license plate lights work. Gauges: All gauges are correct and original Smith brand and are in working order at this time. Interior: The interior is in average shape I'd say but you need to be the judge of that. The car does come with a NEW in the box dash which the next owner will need to install. If you need to see a picture of the new dash just email me and I'll get it right over to you. Exterior: The car is remarkably straight and the paint is what I'd call driver quality but that's just my opinion. Nice wire wheels. Trunk: The trunk is rock solid and has a spare tire and wire wheel.
