Vehicle Detail
This is my friends 1966 MGB. Has rare factory overdrive with wire wheels, solid chrome bumpers, steel dash with toggle switches, desirable stow away soft top and a hard top. The car is selling this week to the highest bidder and is priced well below current market value. If you know vintage British cars you know how rare this car is and the factory overdrive makes it all that much more rare. This a running project car and is priced to sell. Heritage: The car appears to be a numbers matching car and you can order a British Heritage Certificate from England or I can do it for you. The cars commission number is GHN3L60294 and the engine number is 18GB-RU-H-14619. The "R" in the engine number is verification that its a true overdrive engine. Mechanically: The car runs great and was just serviced. The car starts right up with no issues, ticks, smoke or shacking about. Holds good oil pressure at about 60+ lbs. The car just had a complete tune up with new ignition wires, spark plugs, distributor cap, rotor button, new air filters, oil change, oil filter, new clutch master cylinder, new fuel pump, new exhaust system and the transmission and rear end fluids where serviced. Note: The tires are like NEW radials. Overdrive Transmission: Yes this car has the rare and highly sought after overdrive transmission. Overdrive works perfectly in both 3rd and 4th gears. Again, the overdrive is working. Gauges: All gauges are correct and original "Smith" brand. Interior: The interior is in average shape I'd say but you need to be the judge of that. Car sports the sought after steel dash with toggle switches. Note: Seats are not bolted in place at this time. Exterior: The car is remarkably straight but does need some restoration.Car just had a complete new bumper kit installed along with new rear taillight kits with lens, gaskets and chrome surround bezels. Car also comes with a NEW complete 6 piece chrome side molding kit. Again, like new radial tires. Underbody: I really can't get under the car but from what I see she looks to be about average for a 50 year old car but opinions vary. It appears that the floor pans where replaced but done from the inside. Soft Top: Car comes with a folding soft top frame with a fairly good black soft top attached to it. Car also has a folding top frame and comes with a brand NEW in the box RED soft top. Hard Top: Yes as seen in the photos the car comes with a hard top. Top needs the lower seals replaced and believe I do have them in a box along with some new and used parts that come with the car. Trunk: The trunk is solid and has a spare tire and wire wheel. Shipping: If you need to have the car shipped to your location here in the states you can get a fast and free online quote from Able Auto Transport at: http://www.ableautotransport.com/ Overseas Bidders: Yes the auction is open to overseas bidders.
