It's the product of an exceptionally thorough restoration that turned this fun British roadster into a cut-above prize-winner (it already has taken home some nice trophies in the last few years.) That's because all of the usual concerns have been addressed the doors fit well, he hood is flush, nd the decklid sits right, ramed by a pair of gorgeous MGB taillights. All the details are there, rom the MG badges on the nose and tail, o the chrome sport mirrors and polished gas cap. Chrome bumper cars are popular with MG enthusiasts due to their classic roadster looks, nd against the black paint, he brightwork on this prize sparkles and glitters like something very, ery expensive.

The Tourist Trophy steering wheel, nd walnut crested shifter knob, ook so new that you know rings must have been taken off fingers before driving.

That's correct MG Maroon on the block, nd it shows off quite well in the highly detailed engine bay. For reliability, here's a Pertronix ignition system, n oil cooler with braided stainless lines, ront disc brakes, nd a stainless steel sport exhaust system that sounds awesome. Tube shocks, pgraded springs, nd polyurethane bushings make sure it handles the way you know a backroads weekend getaway machine should.There's so much more time and money invested in this roadster than we have the space to mention. But, ive us a call and we'll go through all the details, ncluding the maintenance records and restoration receipts.
