Description

Vehicle Specs

This 1973 MG MGB is a classic British roadster that offers all the charm and driving enjoyment these legendary convertibles are known for. With its signature chrome bumpers and timeless proportions, this MGB captures the essence of open-top motoring in its purest form. It is being offered as a driver/project car—a solid foundation for someone looking to enjoy it now and gradually take it to the next level.

Under the hood, this MGB is powered by its original 1800cc 4-cylinder engine, mated to a 4-speed manual transmission that delivers a direct and engaging driving experience. The car runs and drives, providing an immediate opportunity to enjoy vintage motoring, whether it's weekend cruises or tinkering sessions in the garage. The gearbox shifts smoothly, and the engine maintains a steady rhythm, making this a roadworthy project you can enjoy from day one.

The exterior was repainted in classic British Racing Green several years ago. While the finish has aged, it still presents well at a glance and captures the iconic look of British sports cars from the era. There is some rust on the rear quarter panels, a common area for MGBs, but the undercarriage remains solid, providing a strong structural base for future restoration if desired. Whether you choose to restore it fully or continue to enjoy it with its patina, this car offers flexibility to suit a variety of enthusiast tastes.

Inside, the black vinyl interior shows well, maintaining the classic simplicity and elegance MGBs are known for. The bucket seats offer comfort and support, and the layout remains true to the original design. The steering wheel, dash, and gauges give the car an authentic vintage feel, perfect for anyone who appreciates traditional British craftsmanship.

This 1973 MGB is a true classic that invites you to enjoy it as-is or refine it further over time. Its strong mechanical foundation, vintage styling, and open-air appeal make it a perfect candidate for a weekend project, an entry into the world of classic car ownership, or simply a fun, drivable classic to enjoy on the open road. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a first-time enthusiast, this MGB delivers the pure joy of classic motoring with a touch of British flair.
