1980 mgb...TRUE GARAGE FIND....NO RUST...RUNS

1980 MG MGB

I went to buy a 1971 VW super Beetle, stored in a garage.Owner had this 1980 MG covered in the corner.Pulled off cover...This is what was revealed!NO RUSTHe had the car painted this light gold color.All new carpeting installedNew Convertible top, a couple of snaps torn away.New tires.Has the snap cover that closes off passenger seat and back. leaving only the driver seat open. I will try and get pictures of it installed.He said, it has not been started for 8 months. After charging the battery, it fired up with no smoke or burning oil.It did sputter a bit...foul gas?Drove down the road o, shifted gears ok.Put it on the trailer and brought it home.
He was going to have the electrical issues fixed...maybe fuses, bad wire or a switch. I'm looking into why no inside lights, and heater fan motor, but I don't make any promises. The passenger's seat needs redone. I found real replacement covers(2) on Ebay for $130 ship to you from England.
Sorry no motor pictures yet, still trying to figure out how the hood opens again?Never had one before, SO ANY HELPFUL TIPS would help. I tried Utube with no help. Can feel a latch under front of hood, but does not release it...
As like my other Ebay items, You are responsible for pickup and or delivery to you. Car sold as-is, no returns. needs minor work, should tow, if going long distance.
I know the trending price based on what's listed. That is why I'm offering this at a very fair price...THIS IS A SOLID BODY CAR...that would be a great little sports car, with just a little TLC.
OH...the 1971 VW Super beetle. I'm picking up next Wednesday, Just might keep that one, If I sell the Sand Rail.Wife just wants money to pay bills....what fun is that?
