This 1980 MG MGB has lived a remarkable single-owner life for 44 years until 2024 - a rare feat for any British sports car. The Russett Brown bodywork follows the classic British roadster profile, with its sleek, low-slung stance setting off the pure MG design. The proper factory 14-inch wire wheels provide that quintessential British sports car look, rolling on 185/70R14 General tires. A taut black vinyl convertible top shields the cabin when needed, while the tonneau cover adds that .....
authentic touch of British racing tradition.
The beige vinyl interior creates an authentic British sports car atmosphere. New carpeting lines the floor, protected by matching mats, while the bucket seats feature fresh foam in the driver's position for proper support during spirited motoring. An RCA AM/FM radio and door speakers supply the soundtrack, while the floor-mounted shifter and center console layout put all controls within reach - exactly as MG intended.
A 1.8 Liter inline-four sits mounted longitudinally, paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox featuring electric overdrive for long-distance touring. The Weber carburetor and intake conversion enhance the engine's output, while dual electric fans maintain optimal operating temperature. Front disc brakes provide strong stopping power. The suspension employs coil springs and a sway bar up front, complemented by a straight axle and leaf springs in the rear.
