 FOR SALE IS A 1975 MGB ROADSTER. THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT MECHANICAL CONDITION. THE CAR WAS PAINTED IN 2012 USING A MAZDA MIATA BLUE. THERE IS NO RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS CAR. THE INTERIOR HAS A NEW VINYL TAN INTERIOR KIT INSTALLED. THE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO THE UK STYLE RIGHT HAND DRIVE DASH AND WE PAINTED IT TO MATCH THE BODY COLOR WITH LOOKS MUCH BETTER THAN THE STANDARD WRINKLED BLACK DASH (AT LEAST IS DOES IN MY OPINION)

THE DRIVELINE IS OUT OF A 1980 MGB LE AND FEATURES THE HIGHLY DESIRABLE ELECTRIC OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION. WE INSTALLED A NEW CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE AND THROWOUT BEARING IN 2012. THE TRANS WAS INSPECTED FOR WEAR AND PUT BACK INTO THE CAR (NO CONCERNS ABOUT THE TRANS, IT'S GREAT)

THE ENGINE WAS OPENED UP AND THERE WAS SLIGHT WEAR ON THE BEARINGS AND SINCE WE HAD IT OPENED UP WE INSTALLED NEW BEARINGS (MY PLAN WAS TO KEEP THIS CAR LONG TERM) THE CAR HAS TWIN SU CARBS INSTEAD OF THE OLD ZENITH CARBS WHICH WERE JUNK.

THE BREAKS WERE GONE THROUGH AND NO WORK WAS NEEDED SO WE JUST ADJUSTED THE REAR BRAKES. THEY WORK AS THEY SHOULD.

NEW VDO MINI LITE STYLE WHEELS AND TIRES ARE ON THIS CAR WITH LESS THAN 500 MILES ON THEM.  

THE RUBBER BUMPERS WERE REMOVED AND A CHROME BUMPER CONVERSION WAS DONE. WE DID NOT LOWER THE CAR, WE LEFT IT AT THE ORIGINAL RUBBER BUMPER RIDE HEIGHT.

THIS CAR CAN BE DRIVEN ANYWHERE, IT CRUISES AT 80 MPH WITH NO PROBLEM, HOLDS THE ROAD VERY WELL AND STOPS AS IT SHOULD.

I BUILT THIS CAR WITH THE INTENTION OF KEEPING IT FOR A VERY LONG TIME, SO ALL THE WORK WAS DONE WITH THAT IN MIND. WE DIDNT TAKE ANY SHORTCUTS WHEN PUTTING THE CAR BACK TOGETHER. 

I AM RELUCTANLY SELLING THIS BECAUSE I NEED SPACE AND MONEY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH MY MGA RESTORATION. THE BUYER OF THIS CAR WILL HAVE A VERY NICE MGB THAT THEY CAN ENJOY FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

THANKS FOR LOOKING. TOM
