Description
Lovely example of the classic MGB Roadster in eye-catching red with black vinyl interior and carpets.
This is a 1975 chrome bumper model - one of the last ever ones off the production line.
Bodywork is in very good condition with only a few very minor blemishes. Shut lines, door closes and ride height etc all spot on.
Brightwork is generally in very good condition (I believe both bumpers and all side trims have been replaced), but some slight bubbling and pitting marks on the overriders, grille etc.
Interior is also great with rosewood veneer dash and sports steering wheel (I have the original). Replacement hood looks almost new, also has half tonneau with original tonneau sticks.
Starts and runs perfectly every time, exactly as it should be. Temp consistently fine, oil pressure spot on.
4 Speed gearbox with overdrive which works exactly as it should.
Lots of recent work and upgrades including:
New radiator and hoses, water pump, thermostat and housing.
New tyres, brake pads and shims
New fuel sender unit
New master and slave clutch cylinders and pipework.
New inertia seatbelts.
New throttle and choke cables.
New coil, air filters, plugs etc
Specialist carb tuning
Immobiliser, battery isolator and USB phone charger (replaced lighter).
Have some of the original paperwork from the original sale, old MOTs, handbook etc.
The car is an absolute beauty and a real head-turner - a perfect car for the summer.
Relocation forces a very reluctant sale.
. Log book states 9 owners, lots of early documents including the original handbook and early MOTs, even has the "Passport to Service" book from the original sale in Feb 1975.
