Vehicle Detail

Classic 1966 MGB in great condition with Wire Wheels, Chrome Bumpers, Wooden Steering Wheel, Leather Seats, Carpeted Floors, and Metal Dash. Ready to drive: starts easily, runs and shifts smoothly with solid brakes. All-synchro transmission, 4 speed, not overdrive but upgraded to 1968 model. Updated brakes, clutch, exhaust, and more. Seats newly rebuilt from the frame up, including foam, webbing, and leather covers; new seatbelts, too. New carpet, rubber floormats, and carpet floor mats. New clutch, including standard pressure plate/clutch and upgraded roller bearing to replace the conventional carbon bearing. Twin SU Carbs, professionally rebuilt and balanced. New oil cooler, ring gear, motor mounts, speedometer drive, battery, oil filter converted to spin-on, Pertronix electronic ignition (no points to adjust), Ansa muffler. Gauges, lights, horns, all work. Too many new parts to list, e-mail for full listing, over $8,000 in receipts. I bought this car on eBay 10 years ago and it’s time for a new home. Never wrecked, paint looks good. No radio, antenna is just for show. Includes amplifier with connection for MP3 player and 2 speakers. The engine number is 18GBUH40367 and I believe it’s original. This car is ready to drive, just in time for summer! Video available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyHXsJl-WEM Includes: · Box of new parts, including both U-Joints, a new coil, Bosch spark plug wires, and more. · Black Vinyl top (in great condition, very rarely used) with split-style top bow frame · Black Tonneau top, with split frame in bag · Duravent Custom Car Cover · Haynes Workshop Manual · MGA & MGB Glove Box 1955-68 Workshop Manual (Brooklands Road Test Books) · Driver's Handbook (Moss 210-840) · Original Factory Workshop Manual (3-ring binder) I will deliver (for free) the car to the local DAS Shipping Location (http://www.dasautoshippers.com/). Let me know if you need to arrange alternative shipping arrangements and I will work out how to do that with you. The DAS shipper is in Zip Code 45241, Blue Ash, Ohio, I’m nearby in 45242. I can also deliver the car within about 300 miles of Cincinnati (for a fee). Payment is $1,000 deposit via PayPal within 2 days of the auction end, with the balance due by cash or Cashier’s Check when we transfer the title. This car is ready to drive and you will have a blast with it! If you are in Ohio, you can keep the "Model Year" plates, you are not required to display the Historical Plates. Feel free to ask any questions, I'll post the reply here for all the bidders. On Apr-17-12 at 06:34:15 PDT, seller added the following information: Edited to add responses to private questions: About rust: there are some very small spots on the rear fender seams. The sills and rockers have some bubbles, but no rust-through. The underbody is very solid, including the leaf-spring mounts. The floors have been sealed with POR15 (previous owner) and are very solid. Hope that helps! Can you come look, or send someone to look for you? About the chrome: the chrome is in pretty good shape, overall. The bumpers are very solid, but could use some polish. The rest of the chrome is shiny and intact. See the previous question about the rust, it's really in good shape overall.
