This is a lovely original one owner barn find-MG-B Roadster with 98,076 original miles. The car is a beauty and is so nice to see in this condition. The "dark British racing green" original lacquer paint has never been touched nor has the body. The car has such a lovely patina. There are some body imperfections here and there but nothing to be to worried about (see pics). There is a series of paint blisters/bubbling on the drivers rocker and a few other spots that can be easily taken care of without any metal replacement. There is also some paint peeling on top of the rear quarters and trunk lip. This car is solid. The undercarriage has a nice layer of California road dust and completely rust free. The car is 100% sound structurall, amazing!!!!!
Mechanically the car could not be more in tune. Original matching numbers engine. Does not have a leak, smoke or make any strange noises, in fact this engine sounds so unbelievably good. The MG runs extremely well, so smooth and truly a pleasure to drive/like a top....... The sounds that comes out of the exhaust is epic, quintessential Britishroadster. Theacceleration is superb, the entire drive-train is tight. The clutch is A+++ and shifting through all the gears is near effortless. All mechanical and electrical systems are in proper working order. All of the gauges show accurate readings. The car runs cools and always stays well below the halfway mark.
The brakes, steering and suspension are all in tip top condition. The car has nice stock wheels and caps. The tires are a matching set of Michelin's with excellent tread, however if you look really close you can see some very slight cracks starting to develop. New tires will be recommended.
The interior has been well preserved and is in spectacular condition for being 51 years old. The seats have been nicely redone in genuine leather. They are 100% correct including the overlapping carpet on the backside of the seats. The carpeting, door panels and dash are beautiful as well. The carpet shows some light wear relative to its age.
-Nice glass, windows, trim and accessories.
-Original owners manual
-Chrome bumpers have peeling (mostly on rear) and are very straight. All other chrome is nice and in good original condition.
-Factory radio delete
-New soft top
If you are looking for an all original paint excellent running classic Roadster, do not miss out on this one. It would be a shame to do anything other than drive and enjoy this car just the way it is, although if you want to restore one to perfection this would be the one you would want to do it with. The car is very attractive the way it seats. It is turn key ready to be enjoyed now! The new owner will be pleased with this "survivor"..... This one if for someone who really appreciates total originality and little technology.....
