Look at the you tube video link for a detailed walk around of the MGB https://youtu.be/L1bQl606UjE

Previous Owner had this car for the last 20 years. It was a California car and is an early, low serial # MGB with highly desirable pull handle doors. It retains early classic looks while having upgrades for drivability and convenience such as a full synchronized transmission, five main bearing engine, and 12 volt negative ground conversion. Finished in British Racing Green and black interior with white piping, the car shows well, and looks as great going down the road as sitting in your garage! This car was treated to a full engine rebuild when it was freshened a few years ago by Previous Owner. The soft top is the correct vinyl top with the correct 2 piece top bow that stores in the trunk. Carpeted trunk too. Owner is a Pittsburgh MG Club and NAMGAR member.
MGB features:
• Engine (5 main bearing later model)
• New Tourist Trophy polished Stainless Header and
complete exhaust
• Brand new mini-lights and tires (165/80/15) and
• Negative camber wishbone arms for better
turn-in (original wishbone arms included too)
• Rear brakes and axle seals
• Ignition Kill Switch
• MOMO steering wheel
• Short throw shifter/MOMO Knob
• K&N filter Kit
• 7/8" front sway bar
• Brake Master cylinder replaced
• Painted Calipers and drums
• Slotted/drilled brake rotors
• Braided Stainless Brake, and clutch Lines
• Porterfield Brake pads
• New Polyurethane bushings (upper, lower a-arm)

Lighting/electric:
• Headlights converted to H4 Hella Halogen
• Fog lights -- PIAA 910 series Driving Lights
(VERY bright)
• Single 12V Negative Ground battery conversion
• 80 amp Alternator conversion (original generator
included too)
• Power antenna, Period Correct AM/FM Radio and Speaker

California Car Cover, Spare Tire, Lug Wrench, and MG Jack included too!

Rick, can you provide additional photos especially center where the radio speaker would be. I can't tell what configuration you have in place. Also, are there any issues that I should be aware of? Thanks, Dandaniel.ritchie@staples.com

Comment by Rick Kusy
Yes, all the gauges are Smiths, and they all work. The tach is a later electronic version (not cable driven) and Works perfect. All the lights, wipers, heater motor, heater switches work too. No issues. Has a period correct am/fm radio with original speaker. Car is 100% sorted. Thanks, Rick
