1978 MG MGB Description

I've owned the car for three years and have upgraded, restored and replaced almost everything.i have all of the repair shop invoices for the following:-4 new tires-new water pump-new leather dash cover( i installed)-new stainless tourist trophy exhaust system through the headers-brand new webber carb-new cylinder head-new fuel pump-new brakes and brakes lines-new clutch-new ignition and starter-new radiator-new Pioneer stereo with Blue tooth phone and MP3 compatibility-new gear shift knob-front end bushings and front end alignment-New convertible top-new wheel inserts
Comes with a white hardtop that is in great shape. rubber seals are a little worn.Also comes with a rollbar that i never installed. it fits the car and would look great and of course help with safety but its one of the projects i did not get to finish.
Car was recently tuned by standard british motors in fairfax va and runs greatthere is no catalytic converter on exhaust so runs with a little more power since the new exhaust and tuning was done
Body is in great shape except for a small metal crack over both sideview mirrors on the doors. (very typical of these cars)the interior is in great shape- the seats are original and have no tears or wear. the headrests are both new.Driver side seat has a front left bolt missing because at some point the thread pulled through the floorboard under PO. the seat is fine but is a little loose. my next project was to address this.Has a small oil leak that i've never been able to isolate. im told this is also typical of these cars. It's pretty small so it doesnt affect the car and i check the oil every so often and it hasnt moved much.
i bought the car for 5k and put at least 12k into it plus my own time and effort on things i have worked on.
