A Beautiful Red 1971 MGB Roadster with Black Interior.
LOW RESERVE :

Bid with confidence and if you have any questions, please email and ask. (I am using my new Ebay account to sell this car. For over 10 years I have used my wife's ebay account (ZASAKUNI) which you will see has 100% Positive feed back. )
This MGB is an excellent car with a lots of originality which you can drive as it is or with little TLC make it a high dollar car. I was intending to change the carpet, seat covers and door panels and sell for a lot more but decided to sell as is so that the new owner can get it at a good base price and then gradually make it perfect to his standards. Truly a very good investment as these chrome bumper cars are getting scarce and going up in value real fast. The only reason I am selling this is because I have another 1972 B as well which I have already restored and is my driver for the pleasant winter in Arizona.
THE GOOD
Runs and drives great. Very fast and strong.
The paint is nice 7/10?
The car was originally British Racing Green.
Low miles (title and odometer shows 64000)
Early Chrome Bumper British Sports Car

Wire Wheels with good rubber. (I have a spare wheel but no tire on it.)
This California car is very clean. Rust free with the exception of some surface rust under the carpet due to water retention under the carpet. The 4 speed manual transmission and the 1800 cc motor are original in excellent condition with perfect compression and oil pressure.
The brakes and clutch work well and so does all the electrical.
The dash is in very nice original condition.
The chrome all around is original and good with no denting or rusting.
Good glass all around.
Doors , trunk, bonnet and all panels fit perfect.
Full and Half Tonneau Covers - good condition.
THE NOT SO GOOD, YET CONVEYS INTEGRITY & ORIGINALITY
Upholstery is still the factory original. It is rare to find original upholstery and interior these days and hence I have not changed it to show the integrity of the car.
The carpet too is original with correct mohair base but will need replacement.
Original factory Soft top still on the car, never replaced.
windshield to body weather strip is dried and will need replaced.
Typical Surface rust under the carpet due to moisture retention.
