Description for MG MGB 1969

I BEGAN THIS PROJECT ABOUT 7 OR 8 YEARS AGO STARTING WITH A (NEARLY) RUST FREE ARIZONA/NEVADA CAR THAT HAD BEEN SITTING OUT IN THE ARIZONA SUN SINCE 1985 WITH A BLOWN MGB ENGINE.
I HAPPENED TO HAVE A VOLVO B-18 ENGINE OUT OF A -1967 VOLVO 122 AMAZON WHICH I FULLY REBUILT AND ADAPTED TO A FORD TYPE-9 FIVE SPEED. (BOTH THE VOLVO B-18 AND THE FORD T-9 ARE CONSIDERED TO BE PRETTY MUCH BULLET PROOF UNITS).
I'VE BEEN BUILDING CARS MY ENTIRE LIFE BUT AT 8O YEARS OLD, I JUST DON'T HAVE THE ENERGY ANY MORE TO COMPLETE THIS PROJECT BUT THE CAR STARTS WELL, RUNS WELL, AND YARD DRIVES WELL. THE MAIN THING IT STILL NEEDS IS AN INTERIOR KIT, SOME MINOR DETAILING, AND SOME LOVE. (DON'T WE ALL?)
THE CAR STILL WEARS ITS ORIGINAL PRIMROSE YELLOW PAINT WITH A VERY ATTRACTIVE PATINA AND VERY SOLID FLOORS AND STRUCTURAL AREAS FROM FRONT TO BACK. MINOR BUBBLING ON LEFT/REAR DOG LEG ONLY. A BEAUTIFUL SET OF VINTAGE UK MADE MINI-LITE STYLE CENTER-LOCK WHEELS
HERE'S AN INCOMPLETE LIST OF THE NEW STUFF ON THIS CAR...NEW TIRES.NEW BATTERY.NEW WEBER CARBURETOR.NEW SPORT EXHAUST SYSTEM.NEW EXHAUST HEADERS.NEW CUSTOM DASHBOARD.ALL NEW BRAKES FROM FRONT TO BACK.NEW ALTERNATOR.ALL NEW CLUTCH.MANY NEW SUSPENSION COMPONENTS.A LOT MORE THAT I CAN'T REMEMBER.
CAR COMES COMPLETE WITH WORKSHOP MANUALS, ALL BILLS AND RECEIPTS, CUSTOM TRAILER HITCH, AND A CLEAN, CLEAR NEW MEXICO TITLE IN MY NAME.
MAKE NO MISTAKE. WITH LITTLE TIME AND EFFORT, THIS WILL MAKE A TRULY SPECTACULAR ROAD CAR.
I AM SELLING THIS CAR AT NO RESERVE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER. GOOD LUCK!
