This 1972 MG MGB GT is finished in Harvest Gold over black vinyl and is powered by a carbureted 1.8-liter inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Features include new 14″ wire wheels with chrome knock-off center caps, replacement brightwork and lenses, and a grille from an earlier MGB. The car was acquired by the seller in California in 2010. A refurbishment completed in 2016 reportedly included rebuilding the carburetors and heater, performing paint and body work, fitting a stainless steel exhaust system, reupholstering the interior, and replacing the clutch, starter, alternator, distributor and more.
The bodywork was media-blasted, and the car was refinished in the original Harvest Gold over a six-year period ending in 2016. Brightwork, including chrome front and rear bumpers with overriders, dual rearview mirrors, and side trim, was replaced or polished.
Replacement 14″ 72-spoke wheels are fitted with chrome knock-off center caps and new splines and wears 185/70 Michelin Defender tires, along with a matching spare tire and wheel. The front calipers, rotors, pads, and lines were replaced rear drums, shoes and wheel cylinders were also replaced during the refurbishment along with the rear springs.
The cabin was retrimmed in black vinyl with color-matched carpets and rubber floor mats. The seller notes that the seat foam, webbing, headliner, and cargo area trim have been replaced. A radio blanking plate is fitted and the car features new retractable 3 point belts.
A three-spoke Moto-Lita steering wheel with a wood rim and an MG center cap fronts Smiths instrumentation. The five-digit mechanical odometer reads 85k miles.
The 1.8-liter inline-four features twin SU carburetors from an earlier MG and is said to have been overhauled, bored over .030, and fitted with hardened valve seats, new valve guides, throttle shafts, oil pump, timing chain, and other components under prior ownership. The points and plugs have been replaced.
A replacement four-speed manual transmission from a 1972 MGB sends power to the rear wheels. The clutch is said to have been replaced and the flywheel resurfaced under current ownership. The underside has been repainted.
