For Sale: 1974 MG MGB in White Pine, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

*** MUST SELL ***

*** ASKING ONLY $14,500.00 ***

I have owned my 74-1/2 MGB for 36 years (I'm the second owner).  This car has always been garage-kept.  The car is powered by a rebuilt 1798cc inline-four engine backed by a rebuilt four-speed manual transmission. The rebuilt engine is equipped with an APT (Advanced Performance Technology) performance camshaft and dual Triumph Spitfire 1500 carburetors.  Only 800 miles have been added to the car since the engine and tranny were rebuilt in 2016.

In 1996, the exterior was refinished in a Ferrari shade of red using a total combination of seven coats consisting of primer, color and clear coat.

Features include a Sony AM/FM/cassette stereo, a wood-rim steering wheel, new 185/70 Hankook Kinergy ST radial tires with chrome trim rings, black rubber bumpers, full -length side trim with white side accent stripes, a new black vinyl folding convertible top over a black vinyl interior of bucket seats, trim, and door panels, and a chrome luggage rack. There is an imperfection in the rear bumper that I purposely kept as shown in one of the photos.  This car is available now and comes with a car cover, receipts, vehicle documentation, owner's and shop manuals, a box of additional parts, and active Tennessee registration in my name.

Additional features include manual brakes, steering and windows; a center console with a manual transmission shifter, a 120-mph speedometer, a 7K-rpm tachometer, and gauges for the fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure are located ahead of the driver. With 118,000 miles added during current ownership, the rolled-over odometer reads 150,420 miles.  In 2021, the intake gasket and the intake manifold and carburetor spacers were replaced, the timing and the vacuum advance were adjusted, and the dual Triumph Spitfire 1500 carburetors were tuned.  This MG was factory-equipped with an independent front suspension and a solid rear drive axle. Braking is provided by manual front discs and rear drums.

This is one of 5,273 1974-1/2 MGB roadsters exported to North America, according to the North American MGB Register.
