Vehicle Description
This 1977 MG MGB has gone through an extensive restoration from
2017 to 2020. The result is a fresh look everywhere from the piano
black paint to the detailed rebuilt motor. It makes for an
awesomely presented European drop-top that upgrades all the best
parts while never losing the value price.
This one is a stunner, and it starts with the paint. We're told it
was taken down to bare metal for the restoration, and the level of
quality reaffirms it. The sleek black paint has ultra-smooth sheet
metal so that the sunlight can roll evenly across the MG's iconic
lines. And the clean rubber bumpers, full mud guards, and
customized Rostyle wheels add to the dark and detailed style. All
this darkness also draws your eye to that very distinctive white
racing stripe placed over the top. And the investment in a quality
total presentation is proven right down to the new full-length side
trim and classic stone guards for the headlights.
The new black convertible roof looks great against the black
exterior, and the MGB gives you proper roll-up windows to seal out
the weather. But really, we all know these were made to let the
sunshine in. This one does it better than most. After all, you know
only get more of the clean black style inside, but everyone's
attention will really be on the lumber. It's a hand-made Zebrawood
setup that unites the door panels, dash, wheel, and center console.
Even the trunk is a tasteful custom setup. You'll also appreciate
the little things, like the taut tonneau cover over the convertible
top and an additional wood panel to go over the modern AM/FM/CD
stereo when it's not in use. And while the style is unique, this
never loses that terrific driver-oriented feeling of a comfortable
bucket seat, well-placed shifter, grippy steering wheel, and a
crisp/clean set of full gauges.
When you open the hood, you're reminded that this full restoration
included the engine bay. All that purple and gold look awesome, and
it also hints at the level of work that went into this one. The
motor was pulled out not only for paint, but it also was given a
new head gasket and piston rings in 2020. It also has a long list
of new components like the fuel sending unit, fuel pump, lines,
electronic ignition, plugs, wires, and Weber carburetor. There are
plenty more investments, so call for the full details. The
four-speed manual transmission also has a new clutch, bearing, and
slave cylinder. So you have a motor that fires up eagerly and a
full package that really lets you confidently hit the road. And the
updated suspension with new shocks, bushings, brake booster, and
front discs maximizes the MGB's nimble feeling on the road.
The sale comes complete with build receipts and a bra to protect
the front end from stone chips. There have been all the right
investments to deliver a sharp-looking and sharp-driving MG. So you
know you can't let this affordable drop-top slip away. Call
