Description

1980 MG MGB ROADSTER:
--Carmine Red with Tan interior, Tan carpeting, Black soft top, Restored, 1.8 liter In-line 4 cylinder, 4-speed manual transmission with Overdrive.

The MGB debuted in 1962 replacing the MGA. It featured a modern design including a monocoque structure instead of the traditional body on frame. The lightweight design reduced manufacturing costs while adding to overall vehicle strength. Wind-up windows were standard, and a comfortable driver's compartment offered plenty of legroom. The MGB was one of the first cars to feature controlled crumple zones designed to protect the driver and passenger in a 30-mph impact. 1980 was the final production year for the MGB.

This MGB comes from a large Southern car collection where it has been sympathetically serviced, maintained and restored when and where needed. The MGB runs and drives well. It has recently been freshly painted and has a well-cared for fresh interior. All body lines are excellent and shows no signs of any accidents or damage. It has a very solid shell and drives accordingly with a smooth ride. A classic and iconic British roadster, this restored MGB is ready for immediate enjoyment and would certainly be a showpiece at any MG event or other vintage car show.
