1967 MG B ROADSTER 

1,798cc. From the deceased estate and collection of Jeff Ward. This MG B Roadster was purchased by Jeff Ward in 1991 for investment purposes and has remained in storage since around 1996. During its previous ownership from 1983 to 1991, the car was subject to restoration works. Following acquisition in 1991, the car suffered mechanical issues resulting in Geoff Allen of Abingdon carrying out an engine overhaul, an invoice for this is on file. More recently it benefits from a new fuel pump and water pump. 

The accompanying Heritage certificate confirms that OFD 240F is a right-hand drive home market car produced on the 3rd July 1967. It was finished in Tartan red with black upholstery. Its original equipment included wire sheels, overdrive, a heater and anti-roll bar.
