MG BGT 1978

MGB GT 1978 Pageant Blue I am unfortunately selling my beautiful MGB GT as i simply doesn't get the usage it deserves. I have owned it since 2013 and bought it as a project car. Since completion i have driven it to Le Mans twice for events and have used it to attend shows here in the UK. It has proven to be reliable on these trips and i have also ran it to work a few times as a daily driving car. It runs extremely well for a car of its age. I have MOT history and a file full of repair receipts and invoices for work done. It also includes some photos from a previous owner who restored it first time. The gearbox works lovely and all four gears engage correctly with no grinding, whining or resistance. The overdrive works correctly and also engages and disengages correctly. The engine runs lovely with no knocking, heavy tapping or faulty engine sounds. Tax and MOT exempt however, it is checked before running out that it is in a roadworthy condition. Rubber bumpers in really good condition. The bodywork is in really good condition with no serious rust or rot to be found. The underside is left in paint with no black wax sprayed on it so you can see it has no rust or rot being hidden. Brakes are very good and have recently had two new front brake calipers, discs and pads replaced. Minilite wheels and tyres with very good tread on them. Starts and stops. No blue smoke on cold start up and no black smoke at all. I am unsure if the car has had a converted unleaded cylinder head fitted, so i use a fuel additive to compensate just in case. Ready to drive away. No radio. Some minor paint blemishes. the choke cable doesn't always stay locked in place when in use however, this is a simple fix. Interior is original and is quite comfortable on long journeys. I hope the car goes to someone who will appreciate the car and have as much fun with it as we have. It would suit anyone just stepping into the classic car market as it is so simple to run, maintain and drive. I am in no hurry to sell this vehicle as it does hold a large sentimental value to me, so please no ridiculous offers thankyou. Cash preferred. I do accept BACS and cheques payment however, the vehicle will only be released to the buyer once ALL funds have cleared. Please contact if you would like any more information on the car and i will try help out the best i can.
