Description of 1974 MG MGB

1974 MGB Roadster, estored California car

This is a very nice MGB that has been in California all its life and there is absolutely no rust anywhere. It still has its original rocker panels, og legs and all floors. It has has heavy duty undercoating since new. The body is straight and the paint is recent and very nice. There are a couple of tiny blems but overall a very nice job. Color sanded and polished for a great finish in British Racing Green.

The engine has been rebuilt and has a few thousand miles only. The previous owner had the car for over 25 years and looked after it well. It drives very nicely and everything works. It starts easily with the manual choke and idles nicely. Oil pressure is a solid 60 lbs. cold and 50 at hot idle. The four speed transmission shifts easily and is smooth. It has a stainless steel exhaust system. The dash is like new. It has an electric cooling fan as required here in CA. The brakes are great and the car stops straight. Tires are good and the Rostyle wheels were just repainted. All the chrome is nice. This the last year for chrome bumpers and it has the nicer dash with ventilation!

The interior is very nice in the dark Autumn Leaf color. Carpets are like new. The top is good but there are two small seam splits on the back that don't affect the fit or seal. The windscreen is brand new. There is a tonneau cover in the trunk along with the original jack in its bag and the tonneau support rods. I took the roll bar out for more room but will reinstall if you wish.

This is a very nice driving car that can be used as much as you want. It is a pleasure to drive at any speed and feels rock solid on the road. A long term caring owner kept it ready to go!

Feel free to email for more pictures. I have the car advertised elsewhere and reserve the right to remove it from ebay.
