MG MGB Mk IV

VERY GOOD CONDITION 1976 MGB ROADSTER!!
A VERY SHARP LITTLE CAR car that is fun, fast, quiet and a ball to drive….a fun, fun car! I purchased this MGB in May of last
year. I have “restored” several of these
and needed a winter project. This one
did not need much!! I drove it most of
last summer and fall till it turned cold. It just needed a lot of detailing and some TLC. The engine runs great! Very strong and very quiet. ALL of the electrical works properly…which is
a big thing with these cars. It seems to
be original in most respects and it really shows that it has been well cared
for. In April of 1987 it showed 55, 937
miles on the odometer, in May of last year it had about 59, 000 and it now has
60, 720. I have had several of these and
cannot tell you how smooth it rides and drives, better than any I have owned!!
The
interior is in EXCELLENT condition….seats, carpet, door panels are all really
nice. At some point in its life, the
passenger seat was replaced and they put a driver’s side seat in. The only way to tell is that the tilt lever
is on the left side instead of the right side. ALL of the gauges are clean, clear, and work properly. The dash is like new….no cracks or holes at
all. The engine is well tuned and runs
great…it needs nothing! The top is very
solid and the windows in it are still clear. There is a factory tonneau cover that is in great shape and comes with
the car. It also has the factory
convertible boot. The boot has a 2” tear
in it but it is not that noticeable nor is it in a stress spot. The trunk is clean and has a spare tire
mounted on a rostyle wheel. The tire
looks original…old and cracking.
This
MGB is the factory ORANGE color. The paint
could use some work. It has matted out
on the top flat areas but still shines on the sides. There is a little surface rust, but no rust
thru or bad areas at all. There are two
areas, one on each side just ahead of the rear wheels, where someone improperly
tried to jack up the car. Those are the
small creased areas you can see in the pictures if you look under the car. I have priced this MGB right, accounting for
the flaws in the paint. Be sure to link
to Photobucket to view all of the extra photos that would not fit on the Ebay
listing.
This
MGB is ready for you to take out and have some fun. I can’t stress enough how well it rides and
drives AND looks at 10’ out.
IF
you have questions or need any particular information or pictures not listed
here, CALL or EMAIL me. Please do not
assume anything, I want you to be happy with the car, not surprised. It really is super nice and ready to go at a
GREAT price!!
