Vehicle Detail
I have a nice little MG that I was going to convert to electric, but I feel too bad about taking it apart since it runs so well already. I think it actually gets 40 mpg! Anyway, it has the hard top, an iPod stereo hook up, speakers, new upgraded alternator, new tires, new battery. The soft top is in really rough shape, but there is a guy on craigslist who is selling one for $100 or ebay, of course is an option. It runs great- the previous owner i traded my truck to was from Utah and drove it all the way over here from there. So you know its sea worthy! The transmission (four speed) and engine are good and strong running. I just had a mechanic who works on MGs come out and look at it, and he said there was no problem with either the engine or transmission. It has 69k on the odometer. There is surface rust on the rims, and some on the undercarriage by the drivers door. It wasnt there the last time I listed it (6months ago) so that is recent. The only damage is one crack near the passenger side rear view mirror (see picture) and one of the tail light covers which has been taped over. Yes, it is a really ugly green color, which is not the original paint. Title is free and clear and historical vehicle tags in place. It has passed inspection, so no worries on that score. Oh, also I think I have the shop manual for it and maybe the wheel alignment tool. The interior looks pretty good for its age, with only a small mar on the dashboard by the glove compartment. Contact me if you would like to test drive it. I also have this for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the auction early if there are no bids.
