Vehicle Description
The sporty MG BGT filled a void in the MG lineup to give its
customers that wanted to have a better handling and sleeker looking
vehicle compared to the convertibles. Roughly 4k of these were sent
over to the US market and very clean and well restored examples are
very hard to find at an affordable price.
Proud to offer this stunning MGB GT that has been recently restored
with many new components as well as fresh paint, interior, engine
rebuild and transmission. This car received the careful attention
of its previous owner as he meticulously took this car from a
driver to a very nice show car condition. When restoring an MG of
any model the reward from your expensive investment is not so much
in the return of your money, but to have a show piece that you can
be very proud of is the ultimate goal. That is why we always
recommend buying one that is done and avoid the $10's of thousands
of dollars that are not recovered from doing the restoration
yourself. The previous owner stated he had well over 100+ hours and
$25k in costs.
Started with a nice example to start the car was stripped and
repainted in factory color along with engine and transmission
removal to rebuild and have the engine bay detailed and cleaned
properly. The engine bay was done to perfection and shows extremely
well. The transmission was rebuilt with all new synchromesh and the
gears shift with ease through all gears. It fires up with ease and
has a battery shutoff behind passenger seat. The interior was
freshened up with new leather seats, door panels, headliner and
seatbelts. New carpet kit for cabin and rear trunk is also new. The
chrome on the outside is in fabulous condition and all other trim
work shows nicely. Grill badges on front give the car some class
and the wire wheels really make the car stand out. Fender mounted
mirrors are setup nicely and placed properly. The Smith gauges were
replaced with Speedhut speedo and tach and function correctly. The
original Smith gauges are included with the sale and according to
previous owner do not work properly.
Vehicle comes with spare tire, Smith gauges, jack, manuals, some
receipts and an appetite to win car shows and being enjoyed by the
next owner. Pristine examples of the MGB GT are few and far
between, but we currently have two that have to be in the upper 1%
of condition and value.
