Vehicle Description
The MGB is a two-door sports car manufactured and marketed by the
British Motor Corporation (BMC), later British Leyland, as a
four-cylinder, soft-top roadster from 1962 until 1980. Its details
were first published on 19 September 1962. Variants include the MGB
GT three-door 2+2 coup� (1965-80), the six-cylinder roadster and
coup� MGC (1967-69), and the eight-cylinder 2+2 coup�, the MGB GT
V8 (1973-76). Replacing the MGA in 1962, production of the MGB and
its variants continued until 1980, achieving sales for the MGB, MGC
and MGB GT V8 combined a total of 523,836 cars. The MGB bodyshell
was reprised in modified form with a limited run of 2,000 MG RV8
roadsters (1993-95). The sales brochure from 1972 describes the MG
B as follows: "from any angle, is a classically conceived sports
car. And the reason is simple. It is, in essence, the very
definition of what a sports car should be. A road machine that puts
performance and handling above all else."
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present extremely well documented and
beautiful 1972 MG B. In the always popular British Racing Green
that is recognizable for MG's and remains in great shape, with all
of the exterior chrome including the bumpers, and accent pieces, as
well as the black vinyl top and removable hardtop. The interior was
restored to keep originality intact with just an AM/FM and cassette
radio added for convenience. The seats in a like new black vinyl
and the dash with fully functioning gauges and instrument panel
including speedometer with trip odometer, electric tachometer, oil
pressure, water temperature, and fuel gauge. There is also a map
reading light, manual choke and MG all the instruments and switches
set in a no glare, padded dash. The engine is according to the
owner numbers matching 1800cc inline 4, overhead valve with a
4-speed all synchromesh with electronically controlled overdrive
for third and fourth gears. This is one of the finer examples, with
documentation and the according to the owner actual miles, going
back to the original title application and service records, of an
MG B that has held together so well since the restoration and would
be a treat to drive for miles and miles to come.
