1978 MGB GT 1950cc - overdrive
Lovely rust free example with a few conservative upgrades - electronic ignition, power steering, unleaded head & negative camber arms, Britax sunroof.
This MGB was treated to an extensive bare metal rebuild in 1992 - backed up with a folder of photo's & receipts.
I had Mazda mx5 seats fitted purely for comfort, I'm 74 and the reason i'm selling the car - Her indoors + its just not as easy to get in and out of these days. (I still have the original seats)
Bad points - small scratch (not deep) on rear quarter near drivers door lock & passenger door only locks from the inside.
Here's are a few bits I have had done in my ownership:
- new trunnions
- new propshaft
- new bump stops
- new suspension rubbers
- new front springs
- new gearbox rubbers
- new wheel bearings
- new carpets & rubber MGB mats
- power steering (£1700)
- new wood rim steering wheel (have original)
- MGB clunk has been addressed.
All in all a very well sorted rust free MGB GT ready to go, i've done some long distance journeys and the car has never let me down + having the 1950cc engine upgrade & overdrive means she is happy cruising at 85mph for long periods no problems.
The car has been garaged in my ownership & never seen rain + the old boy I purchased it from had the car garaged too. The underside is very clean - please see pics.
The car will come with a red cloth indoor dust cover.
Any inspection welcome & encouraged, come have a look over the car & extensive folder - you won't be disappointed.
