1974 was the last year of the chrome bumpers and dual carburetors for the MGB. Later that same year rubber inserts were installed and eventually in 1975 all chrome bumpers were gone, and black rubber ones were used.
This ‘B’s history is not well known outside of originally being purchased in Arkansas. Present owner bought it from a dealer in TN without any prior paperwork. The exterior was repainted at some point in the original Teal Blue using a 2-stage urethane. There does not appear to be much in the way of bodywork, but the paint is starting to show its age. Please view all photos carefully.
The interior appears to have the original seats and there are some broken seams in the driver’s seat. The carpeting was recently replaced, and the top is in excellent condition as well as the tonneau cover. An aftermarket Kenwood AM/FM/CD radio was installed in the glovebox, and it also handles Bluetooth with an external microphone. It is not known if the original radio works.
All the factory gauges work and appear to give accurate readings.
Included with the ‘B’ is the original jack, wrench, and spare.
The MGB is a little stubborn to start and the manual choke needs to be used, but once at normal operating temperature performs well and shifts easily.
Selling for personal reasons.

While we do our best to provide quality cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. We have not built, modified, changed, or personally owned this vehicle. Even though this vehicle is being sold by Kurzmann’s Auto Brokerage we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we do welcome 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories, and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 20 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 12 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
