1975 MG B MGB Roadster w/ Chrome bumpers

MGB roadster, 1975

Rust free California car with extensive restoration work just finished

Last owner bought this car in California, brought it to Connecticut where it sat in dry indoor storage for over ten years. Floors are excellent, no damage, no rust, no repairs, just factory undercoating.

Also, excellent body and bright red paint (just professionally wet sanded and buffed). Underwent a professional chrome bumper conversion....new lights, sheet metal, brackets, hardware, bumpers and guards, and early grille. Even the side lights were removed and metal welded into place, then paint blended to offer an external 'look' of the earliest and most attractive MGBs.

Engine: was properly stored with oil in the cylinders, runs better than new with 32/36 Weber DGV carb and improved manifolds, fuel tank and lines cleaned, new fuel pump, factory spec oil pressure and compression, and no smoke. Transmission and clutch work perfectly, all new clutch hydraulics fitted, brakes redone....new master, new calipers, new flex lines, new wheel cylinders, new pads and shoes.

Seats are original and in very good condition but all of the carpets and interior panels were replaced along with a new wood dashboard and modern stereo/CD.

Wheels are a surprisingly beautiful set of chrome bolt on genuine wire wheels and they look fantastic.

Convertible top and boot cover are both very good, has new 3 pt belts, and oil cooler, wiring appears to be in excellent condition and everything electrical works properly. Exhaust is quiet, front end nice and tight, excellent steering.

What is nice about this car is that it is a rare blend of the best of the older MGBs and newer cars........early aesthetics, no side lights, chrome bumpers (all new) yet with the best of the later model cars....stronger transmission and back axle, alternator, dual master cylinders, better controls, better electrics, and factory rust proofed. All in all, a great highway, back roads, and 'round town classic sports car that is easy to service and maintain.
