1972 MGB Roadster for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 196 votes

SPD 770L is a 1972 MGB Roadster. I purchased the car in 2001 and prior to this the previous owner had carried out a full restoration. including various new panels. a complete re-spray in white . new red leather interior. red mohair hood and a walnut dash. I have a photographic record of this work which the previous owner supplied.

 

In the 13 years that I have owned the car I have carried out a number of improvements. replacing many of the panels not replaced in the previous restoration. These include: -

·        Repairs to rear offside wing

·        Complete brake system overhaul including new discs (slotted and drilled). callipers. master cylinder. slave cylinders. adjusters. stainless flexible hoses. handbrake levers and cable.

·        New remote brake servo

·        Repairs to rear nearside wing and sill

·        Tubular shock absorbers all round – Koni rear and Spax front

·        Repairs to front nearside inner wing and sill (including new front wing costing £290)

·        New nearside and offside doors

·        New engine (Moss reconditioned unit)

·        5 Speed gearbox conversion (the conversion kit currently retails at ca £900) with reconditioned  type 9 gearbox from a 2. 8 Ford Sierra (closer ratios than standard Ford)

·        New half tonneau / hood cover in red mohair

·        New halogen headlamps

·        6 volt batteries replaced by a single 12 volt

·        New oil pressure / water temperature gauge

·        Kenlowe electric fan

·        Stainless exhaust

·        New alternator

·        New fuel pump

 

The car is obviously tax free and has a full 12 months MOT until March 2015 (passed yesterday with no advisories or issues).

 

Please contact me if you need any additional photographs or wish to arrange a viewing (Middlesbrough area).

Bidding starts at £3. 00 but if you are at all familiar with MGBs you will realise that that the accessories alone are worth almost that much. (Leather MGOC club seats ca £1. 00. 5 speed gearbox conversion ca £1. 00. red mohair hood ca £600 etc)

 

The only significant faults the car has include an oil leak from the rear gearbox oil seal and a failed fuel tank gauge (new tank sender unit included in sale)

 

As you can see from the photographs the car looks stunning – please do not ask for a “buy it now” price and only bid if you intend to buy. I need £250 via Paypal on completion with the balance in cash on collection. Good luck
