1974 MG MGB

MG MGB (1974)
for sale

Price: US $999.00

Description:

Very nice running restoration with recent paint, rebuilt engine and carburator, detailed engine compartment, excellent mechanics, 4 speed manual transmission and painted trunk. Everything works. Nearly new tires. Nice original interior and very good convertible top. Very nice and dependable driver which could win a local show. The pictures will show its condition and beauty. I bought this car from a man who didn't know how to take the time to prepare the car properly for reliable service. I bought it about 6 years ago, drove it 50 miles to home and put it into the garage. In the spring, I drove it to a restoration shop which specializes in British automobiles, which I've used many times. Its many little things were sorted out at a cost of $1234. Then I drove it 215 miles and return to find it was using too much oil. The head was cracked. After a new uprated rebuilt head , bottom-end rebuild and rebuilt carburetor (and $1994), it runs well now. I have an MGB LE, an MGB GT and others for restoration. It's time to sell the nicest one, so that the others that I love more can get some restorative attention. This is a beautiful garage-kept rust free MGB that needs a new caretaker in trust for the next generation. It's stored indoors and available for inspection and test driving. I have been an MG fellow since 1964 and a member of the MGA, MGC, NEMG'T' registers and the JCNA and WVBCC.
