Description

1978 MG B Roadster. Original 1.8 liter 4 cyl and 4 speed trans. I`m the 2nd owner.

Full restoration in 2017. PO passed away before driving it. Wife stored it inside till I purchased in late 2023 and returned to the road in May 2024. Less then 1500 miles since restored.

Deep south car. 1st owner from South Carolina and moved to Georgia in 1985. I purchased in 2023 and registered in Alabama 2024.

No road salt or salt water ever. NO rust or rust repair. All body panels are original. Car was media blasted to bare metal, sealed with self-etching primer, and painted original color code in base/clear. Engine was a bare block rebuild .20 over with mild cam, and Weber 38 DGA carb.

Full interior pics when done installing new factory door panels as originals have speaker holes. Includes hard top, and soft top. Carelli premium carpet over heat/sound proofing.

I have many of the material/parts receipts including engine parts (Moss), paint supplies, engine machine shop service, etc. This was a full restoration.

Runs better then new. Starts easy and runs very strong. Trans shifts perfect. All the lights, and directionals work. Windshield has 3 chips and a scratch.

Any questions feel free to ask.

*Asking $11,500 reasonable cash offers considered / Current cost to transport to USA export terminal and ship to Rotterdam is about $1200.
