Driver Condition early pull
handle roadster, constructed in 1964 with clean Colorado title. The British Heritage Certificate shows it came
originally in Iris blue with dark blue top and dark blue interior. Always a Colorado car, the car appears to
never have suffered from extensive rust. Currently in red, the car was partially restored around 2010, the
interior has seen its wear with rips in the seats; the interior would need attention in order to be correct
again. The car is still with its
original engine and in good running order, nice idle and cold starts well with
the choke.
Overall a very straight car, no corrosion in
the floors, rockers or dog legs; notice the little bit of paint bubbling on the
top of the rear wings… quite common with MGB’s. Light bondo on the inside of the lip at the top of the passenger rear
wheel arch. No sign of accident damage to the nose, front fenders or rear of
the car. The bonnet is steel not aluminum, most of the indicators are
Lucas. The bumper uprights have been
changed with a slightly later version with the plastic inserts. The windshield has a crack on the lower driver-side corner The car
runs very well, great pull from the engine; the local experts at Sports Car
Craftsman tuned it. Front sway bar is
still on the car and it was factory equipped per the BHC. Non-syncro first gear, second gear upshifting
requires double clutch. (Slight Grind in
second if not double clutched). Lights
work, the gauges work as they should. I have documents and receipts for
the car but they only date back to late 2000’s. Ebay only allows 24 photos, for more photos of the trunk area and more details about the car please email or call.
