MGB Roadster – with Sebring styling and interesting MG factory heritage
Low mileage
This car was originally a left-hand drive when manufactured at Abington in 1978 for their purposes (development vehicle we suspect) and when it left the factory in 1980 she was fully dressed as a RHD vehicle in the LE spec.
The car was once owned by Chris Peacock being the last works manager at the Abington Factory, but had been neglected living in a garden for 23 years!
The next owners set about restoring and modifying her to the current state. This is pictorially documented as well as copious amounts of documentation and has included:
New wings
Inner and outer sills
Floor
Scuttle
Door skins
Boot lid
New petrol tank
New hood
Stiffer springs and uprated shocks
Seat Covers
Carpets

In 2011/ 12 alone there was an expenditure of £5450!
