Last year for the coveted and rare GT body style in the US - hard to find in this condition.Full details below. More photos available. Questions and inspections welcomed.Thanks for looking!Operational:This classic really is a treat to drive/own. It starts easy, nd settles into a low loping idle. Clutch, hifting, raking and steering are all crisp - no slop or play. Mechanicals:This MG is equipped with its original 1.8 liter I-4 engine, ith dual SU carbs. It is backed by a synchromesh 4-speed manual transmission. Disc brakes on all four corners. No noted engine leaks, attles, moking...runs smooth and pulls strong. Good oil pressure, nd runs cool. Clutch engages cleanly, nd at the correct pedal height - easy to drive - very smooth. Shifter feels great - very positive feedback...no slop. Recent tires and exhaust. Accessories:No issues to detract from the experience - all the gauges, linkers, ights, ipers, orn work as they should. The original AM/FM radio is definitely 'lo-fi', ut does work well and adds to the time machine-y experience. The windows go up an down easy, he locks all work smoothly, he seat belts work properly, he seat releases are smooth...even the console vanity light works. This one is ready to hit the road.Exterior:This survivor car has obviously been well-loved all its 40+ years. The body is very straight, nd does not exhibit any indication of collision. The body gaps are all pretty good, nd doors/hood/hatch all open and close smoothly. The car appears to have had a single respray in it's original shade of Bracken. The paint retains a nice shine and depth, ut does have issues under close inspection. There are several notable chips and scratches, nd the paint has bubbled in a few spots. I believe the glass is all original - it has a nice subtle tint to it, nd has no cracks or delamination anywhere. The wheels and trim are also believed to be all original...they present well, ith some expected patina. Interior:The inside of this MG is tidy and inviting. The dash, oor panels, eadliner and flooring are all original and in good shape, ith some minor signs of wear. The seats have been recovered, nd feel and look good. The material is very similar to the original, hough these are missing the relief stitching and other details. All the original knobs, evers, inges etc are in place and working like they should. There is one notable ding in the dash in front of the passenger, nd there is a small section of the steering wheel wrap that is patched with tape. Extras:This car comes complete with its original spare and jack/tool kit, matching set of mint original '74 Texas license plates, car cover, nd some under-hood insulation panels (need to be installed).
