1972 MG MGB V6-5Speed Additional Info:
Own the original, California dream car
Selling my 1972 (1979-style body) MGB that has been upgraded to a V6/5 speed. More torque and horsepower than a Miata, this car is fast. The car is in excellent condition and has been upgraded throughout. A truly modern performance car with all the beauty and grace of a classic MG. This car has been well taken care of and garaged.
One-of-a-kind, collectable includes the following:
• 1972 registry so no smog test ever needed
• Chevy V6 engine rebuilt less than 30k miles ago
• WorldClass T-5 5 speed transmission
• Genuine Weber (Italian) 36/38 carb for instant response
• Leather interior, with redone dash, carpeting and door panel
• New paint (BMW silver), straight, rust-free body
• New Minilite MGB-crested wheels
• Convertible top in excellent condition; clear and no tears
• Windscreen
• Premium audio and speakers (with USB connection and bluetooth)
• Upgraded performance tires in excellent condition
• All gauges work, including GPS, MG-branded speedometer
• Excellent brakes, new master cylinder and rear cylinders, new shoes and pads
• New, heavy duty clutch
• Modern gas shocks in rear
• 12-gallon gas tank (new 5 years ago)
• Rewired electrical system with upgraded alternator
• Aluminum radiator, modern cooling and heating system
• Incredibly low classic car insurance ($250 a year).
This car was not designed to just be a show car (although it has been featured in a top MG magazine). It is fast, reliable, nimble and loves road trips or driving with the top down. The car has gone on almost 30k miles of road trips in the 6 years I have owned it. Truly fun to drive and great for an enthusiast or someone looking for a unique car for the cost of a mundane beater.
The odometer has been replaced, so the mileage is not correct. I bought it with 5k miles and have put 40k on it. Pink slip in hand, and registration up-to-date.
