Easy project

Very Cool MG convertible for sale. Purchased recently as a spring project but must sell to fund another one. Actually my wife is making me sell it for a 4 seater. So, that being said, if anyone has a 4 seater project they want to trade for, my wife would be very happy and not want to disembowel me. It's a cool little car that needs finished. It would be a pretty easy fixer upper just to use as a daily driver. It runs great but needs a starter. I can start it by jumping starter from battery or popping clutch. I have video of it running if you email me I will send it to you. New floors and inner rails were welded in recently. The passenger seat and carpeting no longer exist since this was done. I would call this car a 50 footer. Looks great from a distance but looks like hell on wheels up close. If you know how to do bodywork and use elbow grease you will be good to go. Can you jump in it and drive it cross country? Maybe if you were Evil Knevil on crack! I would have this vehicle shipped or towed so it can be gone through before being deemed road worthy. Brakes were spongy the other day. It's been sitting for a year at least. Motor recently tuned, clutch is super tight and strong. New clutch cylinder too. Rear half of exhaust has been replaced as well. Pictures make it look way better than it is. I bet you saw the dent on the front fender and jumped back a little. It will need a new front fender since it got backed into a few months ago. If you're looking for a fun British Roadster that needs no work, this is not it. It needs work, not much, but it needs some love for sure. Floors are brand new, trunk is solid, underneath looks rusty, rockers are rusty. Like I said, a little love will help this car greatly. The top frame is perfect, the top is the exact opposite and will need replaced or repaired. It does have the cool button on cover for the interior (see pics). Email me if you need more pics or would like to see it. Good luck!!!!

I forgot, the headlight switch is busted and will need replaced. All lights work as they should though!! Amazing, given the fact that English automobile electrical systems are the equivelant of a soup sandwich.
