Vehicle Detail
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE NO RESERVE!!!! NO RESERVE!!! You’re looking at a 1970 MGB GT Coupe. I believe it to be an original California car. I was given the original blue plates when I bought it. It was originally slate blue and was repainted British Racing Green about 20-25 years ago. It looks like it was a nice paint job at that time. It has never been wrecked. The floor pans are really nice, no rust. It has all the original body parts, i.e., doors, hood, deck lid, fenders, etc. It looks to be the original drive train and it does have an overdrive transmission. The odometer reads 32,165, but I do not know what the actual mileage is. All the glass is good. The windows roll up and down really well. The doors and hood open and close really well. No rust (zero) in the trunk floor. The original tools are in the bag. The carpet in the passenger compartment is in pretty good shape. The rear storage carpet is worn out. The seats do need to be reupholstered. The dash pad has cracks, but there is a cloth dash protector pad on top. The headliner is intact, but has some stains and is detached in an area right above the driver’s window. The car has been sitting since 1992. I emptied the fuel tank, put fresh gas in it, checked the electric fuel pump (it looked brand new), put a battery in it (battery not included), and it fired right up. I had it running for a minute and it sounded really good; however, the carbs started leaking. The "O" rings need to be replaced on the bottoms of the carburetors. Keep in mind it's been sitting since '92, so it's going to need a tune up, oil change, brake work, etc. I've had an ignition key made since I took the pictures. To sum it up, this is a nice original project that is reasonably priced. I buffed up the paint, painted the wheels, pulled the seats out, cleaned the interior and put the seats back in. It’s a great project. I got a good deal on it, so you're going to get a good deal on it. Highest bidder wins! It's a no reserve auction. Sorry, but I will not end the auction early. If you need more information (a walk around description) or more specific pictures, you can email me or call me, Mike, at (760) 519-3478. If you are an overseas buyer, I have a truck and trailer and can transport the car to a shipper in Long Beach for $250. If you are in the US and need an interstate transporter, a reliable one I have done business with is Tom Reid at Hanover Transport.

Payment is to be paid in full within 7 business days of the end of the auction and pickup within 20 days of the end of the auction unless other arrangements are agreed upon.
