For Sale

I've unfortunately lost interest in the MGB project and have decided to sell.  If you're interested or have questions, please leave a comment here or send an email to topheral_b AT yahoo.com

My initial price is $3500 as is.  I'm going to continue to do a few things to her and as the condition improves the asking price will increase. 

Things that I'll be doing before I consider the project complete:
Rebuild both vent windows
Install passenger side door interior trim
Replace the seal between the oil filter housing and the engine block (it's leaking like the Exxon Valdez right now - or should I say the Deepwater Horizon?)

Things that probably need to be done:
The fuel tank will need to be replaced eventually
The radiator needs to be repaired or replaced
The distributor may or may not need to be rebuilt

You have the whole history of the car during my period of ownership in the pages of this blog.  It's a no holds barred, very honest description of everything I've done and everything that needs to be done.

The B is currently driveable with brand new tires.  I trust it to get me around the immediate vicinity, but I've never driven it any further.  I put about 30-40 miles one day just around the local back roads and never had a problem.  It doesn't overheat, but the radiator seeps a little.
