MGB Roadster – Heritage Reshell/ Full Restoration
The original MGB Roadster is one of the most recognisable British sports cars ever manufactured. It brought affordable fun to the open road when launched in 1962 and today is an ideal choice for anyone looking for roof down classic car ownership.
Milestone Classics are delighted to market this exceptional MGB that was the subject of a painstaking Heritage re-shell and mechanical restoration 20 years ago. The ‘B’ still presents extremely well today and is a real testament to the skill & knowledge of the restoration company (A J Restorations) and the deep pockets of the then owner.
First registered in 1971 the car was bought for restoration in 1996 and although lots of work was completed the project was aborted in 1997 (a wise decision) and a Heritage bodyshell purchased. New panels were used throughout the re-shell exercise and all mechanical components inspected, overhauled and replaced as required. The interior was treated to new leather seats, new dashboard, carpets, and hood.
Additional work since 1999 includes:
· Unleaded cylinder head
· Steel wheels replaced with correct knock-on chrome wires
· Prop shaft
· Parabolic rear springs with GAZ adjustable rear dampers
· Lumenition/ Megnetronic ignition and coil
· Moto-Lita steering wheel, boss & horn push
· Louder indicator repeater
· Regularly serviced/ always MOT’ed
Today the ‘B’ looks, drives. sounds superb and comes with an extensive history file containing invoices, MOT’s, pictures of the car etc. etc.
This roadster really does tick all the boxes and is marketed at significantly less than a similar restoration would cost today. Ready to drive anywhere this stunning car will provide years of pleasure and many happy memories for the lucky new owners.
