1974 MGB BRITISH RACING GREEN WITH A/C, 5 SPEED, GPS, MUCH MORE

Description for MG MGB 1974

THIS MAY BE ONE OF THE NICEST MGB's ON THE HIGHWAY TODAY. IT IS ONE OF THE LAST ONES MADE WITH THE CHROME BUMPERS, ATHER THAN THE RUBBER BUMPER VERSION WHICH CAME OUT IN MID 1974. THIS MG HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR BY PREVIOUS OWNERS AND THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE IN RECENT YEARS HAVE TOTALED MORE THAN TWICE THE ASKING PRICE. IT STARTS EASILY, UNS GREAT AND YOU CAN DRIVE IT ANYWHERE. LOTS OF MODIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONS TO MAKE THIS A VERY COMFORTABLE, UN AND RELIABLE MG. HERE ARE SOME OF THE UPGRADES: VERY COLD AIR CONDITIONING. GREAT FOR SUMMER DRIVING WITH THE TOP DOWN, IND IN THE HAIR AND COLD AIR ON THE BODY; NISSAN 5-SPEED TRANSMISSION THAT SAVES GAS ON LONGER TRIPS AND SHIFTS WITH A VERY POSITIVE FEEL. ALUMINUM FINNED VALVE COVER THAT HOUSES A ROLLER ROCKER THAT IS DRIVEN BY A LITTLE HOTTER STREET CAM WHICH GIVES BETTER ACCELERATION. FUEL IS SUPPLIED BY A 2-BARREL WEBER CARBURETOR AND THE HEADER AND EXHAUST ARE ANALL STAINLEES STEEL SYSTEM WITH A VERY RICH SOUND ON ACCELERATION. THE CAR HAS RECENT REBUILT FRONT SHOCKS AND A NEW REAR TUBE SHOCK CONVERSION. THE GRIP TO THE ROAD IS PROVIDED BY SUMITOMO PERFORMANCE TIRES MOUNTED ON MINILITE WHEELS INCLUDING THE SPARE.

THE INTERIOR AND MATCHING TRUNK (BOOT)UPHOLSTERY IS ALL NEW AND IN EXCELLANT CONDITION. THE SEATS ARE VERY COMFORTABLE.
