Description for MG MGB 1974

Stk 2327 1974 1/2 MGB GT The Pininfarina-designed MGB GT was announced in October 1965 and became an overnight success. In its 15-year production span the GT proved to be a very popular ride with over 125000 built. The rubber bumper 1974 models â€" considered "1974-1/2" models by MGB enthusiasts â€" were built from September through December 1974. The 1247 rubber bumper 1974 GTs built for our market were the last GTs to be imported. This fully restored (2014) 1974 MGB GT is a 2-owner car and a beautiful example of this design. The original Glacier White finish was professionally reapplied in 2-stage and all chrome and stainless components are excellent. The restored Autumn Leaf interior includes new door cards a seat kit and Moss Motors dark brown carpet. A Kenwood AM/FM/CD system tinted glass new sun visors and 3-point belts complete the package. A new windshield was also installed. Mechanically the GT was virtually identical to the roadster. It was fitted with MG's reliable 1.8L five-bearing engine. Our GT engine was completely rebuilt â€" cylinders bored new pistons resized rods and turned crank. Other new components include: camshaft timing chain oil pump (rebuilt) and water pump. The twin SU 'HS4' carbs (last year) were rebuilt and a new fuel pump and fuel tank were installed. Exhaust passes through a Tourist Trophy stainless header/exhaust. The electrical system was upgraded to a Delco 100amp set-up. The electric overdrive 4-speed transmission is very rare and operates flawlessly. New u-joints have been installed and the differential has been the beneficiary of the 'anti-clunk' upgrade kit. Most components of the disc/drum braking system was replaced during the restoration process. A set of 14" RoStyle wheels mount new 185x70x14 radials. Documentation photos and a CD of the restoration are available. This beautiful British icon is looking for a new driver â€" you.ALL VEHICLES SOLD ' AS IS'
