Description of 1974 MG MGB

I got this car from my dad about 5 years ago; he was given it by my brother-in-law who is a pilot and used it for driving around Atlanta. It has run well all along, nd is a lot of fun cruising around with the top down. It is a manual with overdrive and fairly zips. I'm selling it because I have nowhere to park it (or tinker with it) and it deserves a better home for someone with a bit of time to enjoy it. When my brother-in-law bought it the engine was just rebuilt (10 years back now), nd the car repainted, nd the soft top replaced. My dad did some brake work; I did some electrical work, nd put on new tires, ust replaced the brakelines and the fuel pump as well. (The brakes need to be pumped to engage properly; need to be bled again.) The sound from the radio isn't great. I took out the old and bought new speakers, ut haven't installed them. There's some body damage, rom minor bits of rust to a few paint bubbles (you can see in the photos), o a some body damage in the left wheel well. With a little bit of work, his car could be a real beauty. It leaks a touch of oil, s all these models do, nd to no serious effect. I enjoy the car, ut want to give it on to someone who will enjoy driving it. I've got no reserve on the bidding, o bid with confidence. You'll need to pick the car up. Good luck!
