1973 MG B GT V8

3528cc. Fantastic paperwork. The vendor acquired this red MG B GT from a friend in 2011, and tells us he's known the car for over 20 years. Built between September and October 1973, it was despatched to a dealer in Stoke-on-Trent as a right-hand drive Home Market car in Damask Red with a black interior, as we see it today. Its spec includes adjustable telescopic dampers, rear panhard rod, K&N air filters, stainless tubular manifolds, HS4 headlamps.

The history file contains a huge collection of invoices going back to the 1970s, and a USB drive of photos from its bodywork restoration in 2018. This was carried out by MGOC Workshop, and invoices show the work amounted to nearly £10,500.

Prior to 2018 the car was passing annual MoT inspections with zero advisories.

Two boxes of parts are also included in the sale, along with a spare set of keys, BMHIT Heritage Certificate, dynamometer printout, old MoTs, a period brochure and the V5C in the vendor's name.
