Up for auction is a 1969 MGB with the rare and highly sought
after over-drive transmission and wire wheels. I would call this car a"nice
driver ". The car has had much work done,
looks nice for a driver and drives great so take your time and read this
auction in its entirety. I have a nice file on the car dating back to
1982 when the car had 70,000 miles on her ( now has 80,870 ).
Heritage: This is a purported to be a numbers matching car and I
have done my research and believe it to be so. The commission number is GHN4U161435G, engine number
is 18-GH-RWE-H 778 and the body tag number is MGB010988. You should do your own
research to ensure that my research is correct. You can order your Heritage
Certificate from http://www.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk
Cars like this with a Heritage Certificate only go up in price so your invest is
very safe.
Mechanicals: The car runs and drivers out very
nicely with no known issues and starts right up with just a touch of the key and
has great engine / throttle response. The car starts right up with no smoke,
noises, ticks or shaking about. The car holds very good oil
pressure and does not over heat. The engine is very tight with no fluid leaks or
drips under the car that I have seen. The transmission shift very well up / down
thru all the gears with no noises or scraping. The car will
reverse up an incline with no issues and does not pop out of gear. The clutch
peddle is strong as are the brakes. I would not hesitate to drive this car any
distance at this time. The car was just serviced this week with new points, plugs,
ignition wires, distributor cap, rotor button, oil change, new air filters, new
thermostat, coolant fluid changed, transmission fluid serviced and rear end fluid
serviced. During the service it was noted that the alternator was only putting out 11 amps so a NEW alternator and fan belt have been ordered and will be installed next Tuesday June 24th. The clutch and brakes mater cylinders
where replaced some time back.
Over-Drive Transmission: Yes this car has the rare and highly
sought after over-drive transmission that works perfectly in 3rd and 4th gears.
The over-drive transmission really enhances the in city driving experience and
makes all the works difference on the highway at today's current speed
limits.
Electrical's: This area looks very solid with no
Lucas "gremlins" here. The head lights work ( high beam and low beam ), wipers
work, blower fan works, brake lights work, front and rear directional lights
work, front and rear running lights work, dash gauge lights work, dash light
dimmer switch works, license plate lights work, reverse lights work, map light /
courtesy light works, horn works and the hazard switch
works.
Gauges: All gauges are correct "Smith" brand and all are in
working order at this time. Interior: The interior is overall very good
condition ( see photos ). It has a very nice dash and almost new carpet and MG
logo rubber floor mats.
Exterior: The exterior is in what I call "driver
quality" condition. The car looks good in the photos but does have paint chips
so look closely at the photos. The car sits evenly and squarely on the ground
and has no signs of sagging or the dreaded "MG left leaning" issues. The panel
fit and gap fit is very nice ( see photos ). The front / rear dog legs and
rocker panels are in great shape with no signs of damage or repairs. All glass
is original "Triplex" and they are clear and cloud free. Solid and damage free
jack points. The wheels are just stunning! The wheels have been repainted in
correct factory colors and the wheels are wrapped in almost new all matching
radial tires. The car also has a Tonneau cover that doubles as a top
cover.
Underbody: The underbody looks original and solid with no signs of
repairs ( the car was stored in doors most of her life so she is very solid ). I
have underbody photos available to those who have a real interest in the car (
just ask and I'll send them over to you ).
Soft Top: The soft top is new and fits perfectly and has a zip out
rear window.
Trunk: IS very solid and has a spare wire / tire,
know off tool and a jack.
Buy It Now: Yes I'm open to offers but please don't
waste either your or my time with low ball offers. Please understand I will only
use E-bay's prescribed methods for closing the auction early so don't ask me to
do other wise.

overseas bidders. The auction is open to overseas bidders and if you need to

I know how hard it is to purchase a car online so
please ask any and all questions you have prior to bidding or if you can come
see and drive the car for yourself ( I really encourage you to do so ) as I want
the winning bidder to be satisfied with the car when it arrives. Due to the cars
age and having no way to warranty the car I'm selling her as is. A
$500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of auctions end ( no
exceptions ). |
