1964 MGB Roadster MK I Pull Handle. Stunning Autoglym Show Winning Car.

Description

1964 MGB Roadster MK I Pull Handle. British Racing Green with Black leather upholstery and white piping. The MGB replaced the outgoing MGA in May 1962. It then remained in production until the Abingdon factory finally closed in 1980. Compared with the "A' the "B' was a more comfortable mode of transport all round with more legroom and generally more creature comforts like wind-up windows. Initially all the cars were roadsters and the suspension was slightly softer than the MGA, but it still handled well. Despite being an inch or two shorter than the "A' the interior space was better designed giving the passengers a bit more space plus there was now room for a more sensible amount of luggage when touring. But it carried on the "wind in the hair' tradition of the great British sports car and while by modern standards it is not particularly rapid, in its day its performance was regarded as "brisk'. The entire MGB range all used a version of the 1798 cc BMC Series B engine, which was a slightly enlarged version of the 1622cc Series A Engine. There are many articles that reference the unique features of an early Mk1 MGB – namely; pull door handles, 3 bearing engine, 3 synchromesh gearbox, banjo rear axle and large front wing gap between side light and grille. There are still plenty of MGB's out there so there is strong supply chain for all sorts of parts, over 500,000 variants of the MGB left the factory, however you will have to travel a very long way to find an example as fine as this. This outstanding B is exactly the same specification as it left the factory with in 1964 and as listed on the Heritage Certificate that is included in the vast history file that accompanies the car as well as a huge photographic album of the nut and bolt restoration. Also included are newspaper articles and photographs of the car winning Autoglym car of the show at The Festival of Transport. This is a car that wants for nothing and is possibly the best available and certainly the best we have seen. If you want a period correct MK I Pull Handle then this car is certainly worth considering. Although tax and mot exempt a fresh mot will be applied upon sale for your own peace of mind. Absolutely any inspection is welcome. All major debit and credit cards accepted. Part exchange considered. Free U.K mainland delivery. Please contact us for any further information.
