Vehicle Description
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1974.5 MG MGB GT. The BGT
has undergone a complete restoration at a cost exceeding $35k and
has been retrofitted with early-style chrome bumpers front and rear
(a much more attractive arrangement, in our opinion, than the
rubber bumpers that debuted in '74). Finished in Pewter Silver
Metallic over Biscuit interior, cosmetically this car shines both
inside and out. The body is straight with excellent paint quality,
panel gaps and door fitment. This MG has also been updated for
maximum comfort and driveability, thanks to air conditioning,
heated seats and overdrive.
During the restoration, the car was completely stripped down for
paint - it received all new seals, bumpers and trim plus new wheels
and tires. Interior was likewise fully restored with all new
materials, including custom Biscuit seat covers with black piping.
Heated seats and ice-cold A/C add considerably to driver comfort in
any season. A modern AM/FM/CD stereo with bluetooth, USB and aux
input is fitted in the console.
Under the bonnet is a 1.8 liter four-cylinder mated to a four-speed
manual transmission with overdrive. Every major mechanical system
was serviced, restored or replaced, including a complete engine
re-seal and top-end rebuild, new distributor with electronic
ignition, Weber 45DCOE sidedraft carb, complete suspension
overhaul, new clutch, and new clutch and brake system hydraulics.
This MGB runs and drives better than new.
Restoration receipts accompany the sale. For more information about
