Description:

Description from The Vendor:

Total professional bare metal rebuild completed in the summer of 2020. This fabulous example of the MGB Roadster is the sought-after chrome bumper bonnet model, in tartan red with wire wheels.

The rebuild was comprehensive, totally back to bare metal on all panels, floor, wheel arches etc. Engine out and total strip down. All new items — suspension, wiring loom, fuel tank, water radiator, oil radiator, springs, fuel lines, hydraulic lines, master cylinders, brake discs & calipers, clutch, fuel pump, electronic ignition, carpets, safety belts, dampers, headlamps, stainless steel exhaust, leather seats, tyres, door cards and much more.

The hard top had a new rear window, it also has a soft top and pack away frame and a new black full tonneau cover with red edging. There is a photographic record in a booklet with a list of all new parts and a large file of receipts. Two front wire wheels replaced, new starter motor, new larger diameter steering wheel fitted and fresh Castrol oil and filter and anti-freeze.

Apparently, the original owner was a West Midlands MP who only used the car occasionally during visits home to Wales. He then laid the car up in the early 1980s until it was taken for rebuild in 2019/2020. The 15,984 mileage cannot be guaranteed, but it looks very likely correct. Registered historic so £0 road tax and MOT exempt. It was MODd after the rebuild, which expired in August 2021.

An aged driver with bad back means the car needs a younger owner.
