Here is a great opportunity for someone looking for a classic British sports car project with plenty of potential! This 1979 MGB Convertible is finished in Red with a Black convertible top and a Black interior featuring bucket seats and a center console.

Under the hood is the classic 1.8-liter inline 4-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. The MGB’s lightweight design, independent front suspension, manual gearbox, and traditional roadster layout helped make these cars one of the most recognizable and popular British sports cars ever produced.

Important Project Car Information

This vehicle is being offered as a PROJECT CAR and will require mechanical work before being considered road-ready.

The car was running previously but has been sitting for some time. It is currently in need of fuel system service, including a gas tank and sending unit. The braking system will also require repair, as the brakes are currently dragging. Because of the time it has been sitting, the buyer should anticipate going through the vehicle mechanically before putting it back on the road.

This is not being represented as a turn-key driver. Instead, it is an affordable opportunity to start with a complete classic MGB and bring it back to life.

While we do our best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle can sell at any time.

For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
