This MG is correctly finished in rare and very hard to find Cintron
exterior! It brilliantly pops in the sun with the chrome bumpers
and factory wheels! This example was made in May 1974 by British
Leyland in Abingdon, England and was owned by the same MG
enthusiast owner for the past decade and a previous long term MG
enthusiast owner prior, North American MGB Register #2-929. Dressed
in seldom-seen Cintron (think grass in early spring) the paint
pairs well with the black, folding soft-top and black vinyl
interior. The soft-top is in overall very good order. That bright
and shiny green grass-colored paint is in overall excellent order
while the car?s body is straight and all the trim pieces are
presented nicely. The original painted engine bay is very tidy, the
cargo area looks good and has the following ? a spare tire with
cover, a jack and a tire iron. The car?s chrome bumpers with
overriders look great and fit tightly to the body. No Sabrinas
here! This MG rolls on radials, size 185/70R14 at all four corners
and each tire is mounted to a factory MG alloy wheel. The wheels
and tires are all in good, original order. Under the bonnet is a
1.8L OHV, single-cam, four-cylinder engine with dual SU
carburetors. Backing up this motor is a four-speed manual
transmission and a 3.91:1 rear end. Inside, the vinyl bucket seats
look great, as does the matching carpet. A wrapped, three-spoke
steering wheel is ready for adventure and frames the dashboard
quite well. The instrument panel and inner door liners are in good,
original order while the center console and shift lever look great,
but the speedo/odometer are inoperable. An AM/FM stereo with
cassette deck and five-band graphic equalizer completes the
interior. The roadster was the first of the MGB range to be
produced. The body was a pure two-seater; a small rear seat was a
rare option at one point. By making better use of space the MGB was
able to offer more passenger and luggage accommodation than the
earlier MGA while being three inches shorter overall. The
suspension was also softer, giving a smoother ride and the larger
engine gave a slightly higher top speed. Wheel diameter dropped
from 15 to 14 inches. Convertible competition to this MG in 1974
included Alfa Romeo?s Spider 1300 Junior, MG?s own Midget and
Morgan?s 4/4 and Triumph?s TR6. If a bright and cute classic
British two-seater is your idea of driving fun, you should find
time to stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars and check out this great
driving and previously loved MGB two-seater. VIN: GHN5UE349735G
This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis,
Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 55,193 miles. It is
