£17,995 - MGBGTV8 in Citron - private sale - SOLD
There is a large history file with the car which includes MOTs and tax discs dating back to 1979. The car underwent a comprehensive restoration in the mid 1990s and all the receipts relating to this are in the file. The work carried out included new sills, new lower rear wing repair panels, new doors and new front wings and valance, and a complete re-paint, etc. The car was then Waxoyled and has had the same treatment carried out several times since. It still retains all of its original interior trim, which is in good condition. In the early 2000s a new clutch, overdrive and exhaust manifolds, etc, were all fitted. Numerous invoices for other work are also contained in the file including a complete brake and suspension rebuild, and the fitment of a new fuel tank. Currently fitted with ‘Minator’ wheels but the original factory V8 wheels are also in good condition and are still with the car 160213
