MGB-GT 1973
I am parting out from my cars. I am getting older and is time to let them go, but as a car lover I wish a good home for each one of them that gave me so much joy to own and drive.
I believe I am the 3rd owner of my ’73 MGB-GT. The guy I bought it from was a car collector. I did mayor work on it not because it needed it but because I wanted to make it extraordinary. Costed quite a bit of $$ but was appreciated on the car shows I took her.
Has its original orange color, pain is good but not excellent. Has chips and cracks unnoticeable from 6-7 feet away but a mayor one on the hood (see picture) . For me is fine it shines good when washed and better if waxed; new owner may choose to repaint it.
Chromed wire wheels with Bursani three loaves knock offs and 2 new tires.
Upholstery and carpet are in great condition.
Factory overdrive on 3rd and 4th.
Factory Oil cooler.
Adjustable SPAX shocks all around.
Brakes with front slotted disks, front end bushings, terminals, etc. done together with the engine.
