This 1979 MGB is one of those cars that you can't help but enjoy!
This is one of the later model rubber bumper cars for the US market. Toward the end of the production run, the cars gained a bit of ride height along with bigger, US-spec bumpers to satisfy safety requirements. Some would argue that these later models are the most reliable and efficient of this series of cars, but either way, they've got the same character and soul as the earlier cars. To their advantage, they don't have all of the chrome trim that tends to degrade over time and cost a great deal to maintain, their engines are as simple as can be, and these later models were more reliable. This has the popular single carb setup that gives you a bit more power and we are doing a full carb rebuild to insure that power is on demand!
This car is simple: put gas in it, put the top down, drive, wave at your adoring fans! This one has the very desirable Four Speed Stick with the Overdrive option, very sought after transmission.
The interior is basic tan with no rips, tears or stretches; the dash is in good shape with no cracks; the console, carpets (out but in decent shape), and interior of the top are clean and neat and show that they have been well cared for over the years.
The body is in good shape, (though not perfect), and the paint shows very nicely. The black bumpers fit nicely and complement the Blue paint with the MGB logo emblazoned on the side. Additionally, this car has the desirable MG style wheels that complement the black top and tan interior. There are issues with the outer rockers, see the pictures, that need to be worked on eventually. Enjoy it this summer and fix them this winter.
The underside of the car is clean and neat with no issues (please see the pictures). The overall undercarriage needs nothing and the car was well cared for, parked inside, and appreciated.
Here is your chance to enjoy an authentic, inexpensive British Roadster! Bid, Buy, Drive for the rest of the season and Enjoy!

We are happy to pick you up at the Manchester, NH or Boston, MA Airport or any other Bus or Train Station in the local area. Come see us and drive your cool ride home!
Call us with any questions at any time at (603) 818-8511.
At our dealership we work very hard to accurately describe our vehicles through text descriptions and elaborate photos. When you purchase a pre-owned vehicle it is not a new vehicle. Any used vehicle can have normal wear and blemishes. Before placing a bid please read the descriptions thoroughly and view all pictures. Feel free to call our Sales Hotline at (603) 818-8511 for a "walk around" verbal description of each vehicle we have in our warehouse.
Also, please keep in mind that we specialize in cars older than 25 model years and we do our absolute best to represent these cars in a direct, honest, and fair manner with over 100 pictures for each car along with a video to let you see the car move and hear the car run. Our written ads reflect both the fact that we really love these cars and feel that we are saving a part of America. We do our best to describe some of the features that you might find important. As a buyer of a car that is older than 25 model years, unless the car is represented as perfect (which our cars are not), you need to be aware that there are many smaller things that may or may not work, or may work one day and not the next, in these cars. This is due to the fact that they are over 25 years old. When bidding on a car please keep this in mind.
BIDDING, WINNING, PAYING:
We reserve the right to cancel your bid if you have fewer than 5 feedbacks. Upon meeting the reserve, bidders must message or call immediately and demonstrate a serious intent to purchase. If we don’t hear from you within a short time, we will cancel your bid. We have a zero tolerance policy for SHILL BIDDING and BID INTERFERENCE.
TO BID YOU MUST BE OVER 18 and pay with a wire transfer, personal check, cashier’s check, certified bank check, or money order. Partial payments via PayPal and credit card payments are acceptable, but amounts greater than $500.00 will be subject to a 3.2% fee.
Please DO NOT BID without the intent to finalize this transaction. Winning bidders that do not finalize will receive negative feedback and will be reported to eBay. They will also be blocked from future auctions.
ALL SALES ARE FINAL. THE VEHICLE IS SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS! If you have a question, please ask. Our associates are happy to respond to whatever questions or concerns you may have.
FEES:
There is a $99.00 documentation fee with each transaction to cover the costs associated with transactional paperwork, title, storage, and detailing.
We offer door-to-door shipping for most of our vehicles. Please inquire for an estimate. There is a 99.00 fee to arrange this service. Shipping date and price estimates are just that: estimates, subject to change due to fuel prices, weather, and other variables.
DISCLAIMERS:
Seller reserves the right to end auction early. This is the case with nearly every vehicle that we sell on eBay, as the vehicles are also being offered in local classifieds and on our website. If you see it and want it, CALL; don’t wait! In the event of an agreement, we will post a Buy-It-Now button for you.
The Seller expressly disclaims all warranties, whether expressed or implied, including but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The Seller does not assume, or authorize any other person to assume on the behalf of the Seller, any liability in connection with the sale of the Motor Vehicle. The Seller's above disclaimer of warranties does not, in any way, affect the terms of any applicable warranties from the manufacturer of the Motor Vehicle.
The Buyer and Seller agree that New Hampshire law governs any dispute arising under this contract, and that New Hampshire courts will have sole jurisdiction if any suit is brought.
All above terms and conditions are applied to vehicle sales, whether through eBay or otherwise.
At DustyOldCars.com we understand that to buy a vehicle you have not seen, from a dealer you have not met, requires a leap of faith that is why we make every effort to accurately and fairly describe our vehicles to our customers. However, with all pre-owned vehicles that are over 25 model years in age, the condition is subjective. Any errors are unintentional. They may have small dings, small scratches, and minor imperfections. The interior may also be worn due to corresponding miles on vehicle. Please be advised that you should expect a certain amount of wear, flaws from a vehicle over 25 model years in age and use that you would not expect from purchasing a new vehicle. Almost all of our cars are antique vehicles and at times, they may come without accessories such as extra keys, cd magazines, navigation discs, floor mats, tools, etc. and owner's manuals. (Please call for actual miles at the time of purchase as we do drive some of the vehicles). Please read our descriptions and view all the pictures carefully to ensure that you are knowledgeable about the vehicle before ever placing a Bid.
