Description of 1974 MG MGB GT

I purchased this now beautiful MGB GT as a barn find in 2012 and have spent the last four years lovingly restoring it to its present condition. This is a timeless fastback style with a body designed by Pininfarina.
Runs super strong, straight and very sound. Excellent oil pressure and correct compression in all cylinders.
Body is in very good shape. Very solid with excellent undercarriage.
Doors, Bonnet, Rear Lid, everything fits as it should.
Electrical components are all in good working order including the panel/instruments and interior lights. Heater and fan are also working.
Correct, meticulously restored no-maintenance Rostyle wheels. Excellent Michelin ZX Radial tires.
There are no strange noises coming from the engine, front or rear end.
Slick shifting 4 spd transmission and smooth clutch. No grinding, no shuddering. All hydraulics were rebuilt or replaced and upgraded to silicone fluid, with new soft lines and seals throughout. New brake master cylinder and clutch slave cylinder. New suspension A-arm bushings, front springs (Moss, lowered with correct bump stops). New gas tank.
Very desirable color combination in original Teal Blue with Saddle / Autumn Leaf interior. I special ordered two cowhides color matched to the door cards, and had the front and rear seats reupholstered in genuine leather. Enough leather is included to cover the interior wheel wells, speaker panels, and armrest if desired. The actual mileage on the car is 129,000; showing 29,000 on the odometer..
We drive this car often as the pleasure of a very responsive engine, smooth sports car handling, and smile-inducing responses make it a reward to drive every time. Cruising at 70 mph there are no vibration or road holding issues, nothing. A really sweet and very impressive ride.
You are welcome to come and inspect and test drive the GT.
I am sure that you won't be disappointed.
Feel free to call or text with questions, or to schedule a checkout visit!
Thanks,
