1972 MG MGB

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. THIS IS A REVISED LISTING WITH OPTIONS.

This car was started as a Sebring project and is complete but disassembled. Hip replacement surgery intervened and completion is not possible for me.

The car needs reassembly and finishing work and is an ideal Sebring winter project for the MGB enthusiast with mechanical skills (or access to them) and a facility for finishing.

A brief description of the car:

The body shell is a 1972 GT model. disassembled. bead blasted. fully primed and protected. The engine bay was painted in epoxy coat. Sebring flares were fabricated in metal and a couple of metal panels let into bodywork where necessary though the shell was an amazingly sound and clean example to start out with. Twin Monza style filler recesses were fabricated. again in metal. each side of rear quarter panels to take Monza oversize racing filler caps. A modified steel MGB hood comes with car to give clearance for V 8 engine. Metal exhaust vents were let into front wings. A Sebring front valance with ducts for air and fog lights comes with car. Rear Sebring valance.

New 15 x 8 Enkie type wheels and rubber.

New wiring harness. rubbers to glass. new aluminum radiator. new fuel cell. 4 point roll bar installed.

About $8. 00 went into the metalwork. bodywork. beadblasting and painting over and above the price of the car.

The engine is '93 Ford Cobra V 8 302. Cobra heads. roller rockers and mild E 303 cam. Freshly painted and ready to go. Approx 300 HP available. Engine is secured in wheeled. engine stand and can be easily moved around.
