Description for MG MGB 1974

74 MGB Roadster Teal Blue with Autumn Leaf interior (Original colors) and brand new tan Robbins top with zip out window. This car is among the last of the chrome bumper models produced and is a one-owner and matching numbers car with factory OD. There are not many matching number MGBs around anymore.That makes this one kinda special. With the matching numbers it has the correct pedigree to be a show winner!
Besides being super reliable it also drives great and you could drive it anywhere. I have no problem keeping up with or passing traffic on the interstates. Engine pulls very strong with uprated pistons and cam. You can feel the extra ponies from the uprated engine rebuild. It is rock solid at normal highway speeds and well beyond. The Minator alloy wheels and Fuzion tires are a great combination. Head has been redone with hardened seats for unleaded fuel. I have basically rebuilt this car from top to bottom so all the major mechanical systems have been renovated and brought back to excellent operating conditions. See the extensive list of projects done below.
This is great opportunity to own a classic that you can drive right away at a reasonable price. If you prefer lying on your back underneath your MG with oil dripping in your eyes to driving it then don't buy this one. There are plenty around that you can work on. It is really a great driving car and if you drive it you will know what it felt like to drive a new one. If you want additional photos let me know and I will get them for you
