About this vehicle
I bought this 4 years ago from a single owner family in Provo Utah. I paid to have it professionally inspected and paid for any repairs as needed. The top is not new but in good overall condition with perfect plastic. Only a few issues needed addressing. Overdrive switch needs repair (likely solonoid) and lights on off switch on needs replacement.(part provided and easy fix) 2 tears on passenger seat back. Has aftermarket radio, removable headlight stone guards, and a battery bypass switch (discreetly hidden) to keep battery from trickle draining. Also a good anti theft measure. Comes with Tonneau cover and lockable car cover.Seller's Notes

Electronic overdrive switch (typically solenoid) and headlight on/off switch on steering column e (easy fix with replacement part included)
Finished in signature black (for the Limited Edition), this classic British roadster is solid and rust-free, with clean body lines and excellent overall presentation. It has approximately 94,500 miles and runs strong with good compression, no oil leaks, and dependable performance.
Recent mechanical improvements include new brakes, new fuel pump, new clutch, brand-new tires, significant electrical and wiring updates, and a new heavy-duty radiator. The car starts easily, runs smoothly, and is ready to be driven and enjoyed.
The interior is nearly flawless (other than 2 tears on passenger seat) Overall this car presents extremely well and is quite a head turner. The car retains its original wheels and has also been upgraded with official MG matching black Mini Lites wheels for an enhanced look.
This is one of approximately 6,700 Limited Edition MGBs produced, making it a desirable and increasingly collectible example of the final year of production for
