1979 MG MGB -- Description

Production of the MGB began in October 1962 just after the production of the MGA had ceased. Though often referred to as a roadster the MGB had roll up windows outside door handles and vent wings. A Mark II version was added in 1967 and the car stayed in production until 1980 becoming one of the most successful British sports cars of all time with a total of over 300000 cars being exported to the U.S. alone. The classic MGB's continued the stronghold that MG had over the market of small roadste...rs that began after World War II. With great styling and handling (featuring a better suspension than MGA's) the MGB continued to gain popularity in the United States. 1975 marked the 50th anniversary for MG. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this nice driver quality MGB roadster and in very nice mechanical condition and lots of appeal. The 1.8 Liter engine runs well and pulls strong once it's warmed up. The 4-speed manual is smooth in each gear and the current owner has provided paperwork showing the clutch has recently been replaced.

According to the owner the tires are new the valve cover gasket has recently been replaced and the vehicle also features a new clutch cylinder.
