Description of 1976 MG MGB Convertable |
|
The cars story when I bought it then finished the repairs. Here is a list from the person I purchased The car from in 2014, it took two years to to finish and now it runs like a top, just needs a smog. The fuel injection is carb and California legal with documentation . I don't live in a town with a smog station. The MGB sits in my garage looking beautiful. 1976 MG MGB Convertible VIN: GHN5UG400669GFrom previous owner; My tale: In 2009 I DROVE the car in to get it smogged. While the mechanic was fiddling with it, the head gasket blew. Upon disassembly I was told it needed a rebuild. The engine was rebuilt, a new clutch installed, and eventually put back in the car. After more than three years of asking for my car to be finished I gave up and picked it up. The repair shop owner claimed it was almost done except for two engine mount bolts not yet installed. The distributor is not tightened down - I assume ready for timing - I do not have a timing light. There is no oil ( this was not the case, it had break-in oil which in a new unrun motor is completely clear) new owner discovered You may assume I was ripped off. I drove a running car in for service and got back a car that is "almost" finished. So after putting $30K in parts and more hours than I care to admit to into this car I am done. Hopefully it will get a good home and I can get some garage space back. If the car was running it would be worth $13-14,000. The leather upholstery & carpet cost was $4,500 and the top was $3,500 from England. The radio was more than $500 and I had to install it. The Fuel Injection kit was more than $2,500 and the radiator I designed cost $1,000 to have made. That is just a sample of what is into this car so check out the following list.
