Description

It may be worth making a cup of tea and getting comfortable, I'll try to cover as much as possible... This vehicle belongs to me personally, the owner of Ball Automotive Ltd. A couple of years ago, one Friday evening after a beer or 2 too many, I bought this beautiful little MGB. In need of much TLC at the time, I took her under my wing with the best intentions of returning her to her former glory. I've got as far of her being mechanically sorted to a point where she starts and drives beautifully. Mechanically I wanted her to be safe and reliable to the point of being able to pass an MOT which she did 19/09/2024. Further down the description I'll include a list of what's been replaced during my ownership. The next step would be the cosmetic side of things which, in my opinion, won't take too much. In the early days I made the mistake of keeping her under a car cover which has resulted in paint micro blistering. The chrome parts could do with a freshen up too. The roof is in a terrible condition but... I do have a brand new roof vinyl which will be included with the car. However, lack of time and space means my journey with her is coming to an end and the baton will be passed onto her next owner. In terms of history, she spent her early years in California before coming over to the Uk in 1990. Manufactured in 1976. Over the last few months, in preparation for her MOT, she's had the following replaced.... Battery, Front brake discs/calipers/pads/hoses, Rear brake drums/shoes/cylinders/pipes and hoses, Fuel tank/lines/pump, Clutch, Master and slave cylinder, Distributor cap and leads, Radiator flush/fresh coolant, Ignition lock wiring, Perished hoses replaced and many other general items. She has a small collection of paperwork from over the years dating back to when she was in California along with the owners hand book and some photographs from her early days. I'm not sure how relevant it is with the works she's had done but I'm unable to verify the mileage. You're welcome to ask any questions and I'll do my best to answer. 4 Owners in the UK inc myself. , Blue, 4 owners, Please read our dealer reviews., £9,950
