1979 MGB Roadster For Sale

Superb and Ready For spring, 1979, V reg, low mileage rubber bumper rare factory black MGB Roadster, 55, 560 miles this car has its original silver painted wire wheels as specified from the factory with hexagonal chrome spinners. I have had fitted 5 new inner tubes with 5 new Falken tyres all balanced. This car has had a full respray in the past, complete new interior to include many upgrades such as Luxury perforated leather sports seats, new runners and spacers, full luxury carpet set trimmed and bound edges, Full luxury carpet set to boot area including the spare wheel cover, new leather gear gaiter and chrome surround. New sun visors, A full new set of vinyl trim panels, new fixings and new chrome trims replacement dash bulbs all working correctly. This car is a 4-speed manual with overdrive on 3rd and 4th all working perfectly.

The standard seat belts and mechanisms have been upgraded and replaced with new contrasting silver grey webbing new receivers and seat belt holding set for ease of reach. I have installed a new high quality leather Mota-lita steering wheel along with a stunning MG horn push.(show only as horn is still operated on stalk as per factory).
A new Kenwood Radio CD player and speakers installed.

A stainless steel protective scuttle grill has been installed to prevent debris entering the air chamber.
The car benefits from recently installed Electronic ignition and new HT leads and coil.

The car has just had a full service to include all oils replaced, brake pads, plugs, fan belt and the brake fluid changed. The carbs have been balanced and tuned and run perfectly.
The car required a new clutch master & slave cylinder which was carried out at same time as full service. There is no rust on the car and the mileage is genuine backed up by endless paperwork, receipts , invoices and mots.
The cars paintwork has been professionally waxed and polished and has been wax oiled for peace of mind.
Uprated anti-roll bars are fitted.

I have had fitted a Genuine MGOC Mohair soft roof with new seals all round by a professional trimmer and looks stunning. This has the zip out rear window option and the deletion of rear quarter windows that always crease when the hood gets lowered.

This model is pre 1980 which meant that a rear fog light was not compulsory, so one has never been fitted.

This MGB roadster benefits from a stainless steel exhaust with a lifetime warranty.

New Mot completed, expires 20th March 2019.

I have purchased the Heritage certificate for this car showing that it is a genuine factory black with wire painted wheels from new and the options fitted.

Car is complete with full and half tonneau covers, luggage rack, car jack, spanner and mallet.
The original steering wheel and radio are included.

I am an MGOC member. I would say that this MGB is a condition 2, with condition 1 being as new or better than factory.

I am selling this well sorted and reliable car with confidence and to find a caring home, ready for summer requires and wants for nothing, a very special car. Please don't confuse this car with the usual MGB roadsters for sale, i spent ages searching when i purchased her, have spent time money and lots of work to get to this standard.

Most Late MGB's have had the chrome bumper conversion, finding a good condition rubber bumper model is becoming harder and harder.

Thank you for looking, please feel free to ask any questions.
