1977 MG MGB MK IV Convertible 2-Door

This "NO RESERVE" auction is for a very nice 1977 MG MGB convertible roadster. It has a 4 cylinder gasoline engine and a 4 speed manual transmission. I bought it from the executor of an estate. I am a "car guy" but I have way too many projects! The car had been setting in a storage building for probably 10 years. Before that, from looking at the overall condition and the new tires on it I would say it was someones "pride and joy". The sheetmetal, top and underneath is extremely solid with little or no rust on this car. I enclosed pictures of the bottoms of the doors....smooth and solid! I was told it was originally a Florida car so it has seen no salt or inclement weather. I crawled around underneath it....super solid everywhere. I drained the old gas and changed the fuel filter...car started up and just purrs! The transmission shifts perfect, car goes down the road nicely. The interior looks original and is very nice. The top is new. The exhaust is solid. The tires are like new but have some dry rot so I am not sure if i would trust them or not. The trunk floor is solid like the rest of the car. The brakes work, but will need some minor work before I would consider this car "roadworthy". Overall this car would make someone a super driver with just the smallest amount of TLC...and would make someone a perfect example to do a cosmetic restoration on to create a "show worthy" car without replacing a bunch of sheet metal and panels.As I said, this is a "NO RESERVE" auction. High bidder at the end owns it. Please don't bid if you can't buy...as you may end up the high bidder! This is a "pickup only" auction so you will need to get it hauled to you. I will work with your hauler to facilitate pickup.Please...look at my feedback and bid with confidence! Also. email me any questions you may have.
