For sale is 1973 MGB GT that I'm selling for a friend. Her husband recently passed away and she wants to sell this car. The car is complete, as best as I can tell, but has been sitting in a field for 20+ years. Not being able to get under the car, there doesn't appear to be any rust through in the exterior metal. The floor pans appear to be intact with no obvious rust through spots (front and rear). Couldn't see the pan under the hatch back so that is still an open question. I don't know if the engine turns over as I couldn't get the bonnet (Hood) open to check. This would be a good project or as a parts car. This will be a cash only sale with the purchaser responsible for removal of the car from the field, pack-up, and transport.

1974 Red MGBThis MGB was completely restored 3 years ago by John Haines at British Connection. Sadly, the owner passed away after only putting 385 miles on the completely rebuilt engine. After 3 years his wife gave it to John to sell and I bought it. It is perfect in every way. I have put 1,000 miles on it in the year I have owned it. It has overdrive and runs like a new car. This vehicle has been appraised at $29K I have all of my cars detailed at least twice a month and they are all garaged when not being driven so they have no deterioration that comes from sitting outside.

Carol Shelby had it right, Put American power into a lite British car and hang on. Chevy Vortec V-6 HO, T-5 Trans with a 12 bolt rear end. Put this all in a lite weight 71 MGB GT and let the good times roll. Been in storage for awhile, connected the battery, let the fuel pump put some fuel in the carb and Fired right up. Put some air in the tires and was running through the canyon roads close to my house 10 minutes later. Beautiful Ride thru the Lake Elizabeth valley, Mazda 3 pulls out in front of me, down shift to 4th bye bye. Took some of these photos at the poppy reserve in Southern California. 50 mile round trip without a hitch other than the trans was a little noisy for the first 10 miles or so then quieted down. Gonna get that looked at. Not a perfect car, wish list would be fix all the gauges. Only the temp and oil work at this time. GET BETTER BRAKES!!! They stop, but with that added power they need to stop better. Make the suspension better. Beat a Honda 2000 thru the canyon once but only because of the exit power this car has, the cornering so-so. Shelby Cobras had the same problem, I had one. There are a couple of nicks in the paint here and there but I think it gives the car character. "OL 22". I bought this car on e-bay 3 years ago. Owner fibbed, the only thing holding it together where zip ties. We took off about 50 of em. They where everywhere. Everything is now connected the way it should be. When I bought the car it had a Georgia license plate and still does. Got a Certified bill of sale as Georgia does not do title and a registration certificate. All numbers match on Bill of Sale, Registration and VIN/Body. I haven't titled it yet in Arizona as most of my time with this car has been repair. Wasn't happy at first, got to admit but now it is hard to put up for sale. Own too many cars ( it's a sickness ) and some have to go so reluctantly selling this car. Any questions e-mail me and I will do my best to answer ( I won't fib ) Hate getting burned. Any bidder with less then 10 needs to contact me before bidding or I will block you, like I said, Hate getting burned
