1974 MGB
this is the last model before design change to include rubber bumpers. This is my only car so it was a daily driver, I maintained it regularly and it was surprisingly reliable for how old it is. Fun to drive with top down in summer, starts many conversations. Runs OK now once warm, rough when cold.
Work done over the span of a year and a half:
Brakes; new rotors, pads, shoes, slave cylinders, steel braided lines, master cylinder
Engine; used engine installed in May 2015, new clutch
Converted to electronic ignition, new plugs, wires, condenser
New starter
New front axle bearings
U-joints replaced
New top
New tires
New headlights
New shocks all around
Converted to single 12v battery, negative earth
Needs:
Front end bushing replacement --I have polyurethane replacements, only needs installation
Rear axle bearing replacement (not critical) --I have the complete kit, needs installation
Carburetor is all original and needs rebuild
Heat and defrost not working properly
Body in good shape with some surface rust nothing though the body as I can tell, it needs sanding and painting
Interior is OK, seats are worn and needs re-upholstered
