Vehicle Description
A great-looking 1974 MGB GT is already an intriguing classic. But
when you realize that this exceptionally affordable coupe has fresh
paint, interesting features, and a rebuilt motor, then you know
this is exactly the GT you've been waiting for.
A repaint of this coupe was completed in 2016, and you can
absolutely tell the difference a professional and modern
application makes the moment you see this one in the sunshine.
Plus, an MGB GT in its correct shade of standout Bracken Orange
just seems appropriate. After all, these hatchback coupes had a bit
more flair than the roadsters thanks to the Pininfarina restyle.
But beyond this Italian update is the British style we all love.
The sleek lines with just the right amount of chrome give this a
confidently regal appearance. Because 1974 was the last year they
imported the GT version, you have extra historical distinction to
go its noble appearance. But beyond just history, you look at the
how well the panels line up, how the sweeping trim line runs
unbroken over the whole profile, how nicely the newer bumpers
shine, and how the iconic Rostyle wheels were refinished to be
bright and distinguished. It all tells you just how well cared for
this coupe really has been.
Those familiar with the roadster will feel right at home hopping
into the GT. The entire inside envelops the driver like a second
skin. The space between the three-spoke wheel and the MG-logo stick
shift is exceptionally close for comfortable and quick performance.
Plus, as a true grand touring machine, there are comfortable
features like an upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo and provisions for
factory air conditioning. The driver gets a full set of Smiths
gauges with a large speedometer and tachometer, as well as dials
for other vitals such as oil, fuel, and water. The black vinyl
bucket seats are looking good, and what really makes the GT
distinctive is behind these . Not only is there a rear seat for a
true 2+2 experience, but also the hatchback gives you genuine
luggage space and versatility that the roadster never could. So
while the interior is too nice for us to suggest you make Home
Deport runs, we do know you're thinking about packing a bit more
into your weekend getaways.
Lift the hood to see the bold red top and big dual side draft carbs
of the legendary 1800cc motor. This setup was rebuilt later in the
car's life and there are signs of careful ownership ever since.
There is a surefooted feeling on the road thanks to front disc
brakes and new tires. So this coupe has the kind of investment that
just begs for the open road, and that's exactly what an MGB GT is
all about. The sound of the power plant, the slickness of the
four-speed gearbox, and unmatched tight handling will make it your
favorite classic.
This is a distinctive coupe that's far rarer than its roadster
siblings, and it has the investment to make sure it outshines them
everywhere it goes. It's evident that this is truly an MGB GT worth
much more than its affordable price. Call today!!!
