Description
You can have your cake and eat it…
If you're looking for a classic 1970s MGB but don't want the corrosion concerns often associated with earlier cars, this could be the perfect car for you. First registered in 1978, this MGB has been comprehensively rebuilt using a new Heritage body shell. The result is a car that retains all the charm and character of a classic MGB, while benefiting from the strength, reliability and usability of a later-generation car.
Finished in immaculate British Racing Green, it is complemented by distinctive Sebring front and rear valances and genuine Minilite alloy wheels, giving it a purposeful and sporting appearance. The car was extensively rebuilt between 2008 and 2009, including a rebuilt engine incorporating a Stage 2 cylinder head, a Piper fast-road camshaft and a fully balanced engine and clutch assembly. Following the rebuild, the owner's work took him abroad and, as a result, the car has seen very little use since the work was completed.
Now fully recommissioned and ready to enjoy, this is a particularly appealing MGB for anyone looking for classic styling combined with the later mechanical upgrades.
