1970 MGB Roadster - price reduced to £9900

Description

The car is in generally very good condition, and has been much admired. Engine and overdrive gearbox are good, and it drives very well.
The paintwork is very good with only a very few minor chips and blemishes. The chrome bumpers are in excellent condition and it has painted wire wheels with chrome spinners.
123 Electronic ignition was fitted in 2020 and a new fuel tank and sender unit fitted in 2022.
There is a Moto-Lita steering wheel, and the black leather seats, piped in red, are in excellent condition.
There are no keys for the door locks, though there are keys for the glovebox, boot and fuel cap. The packaway hood is in good condition.
The car now has a fresh MOT, which runs to 17th June 2026.
This car looks great, drives well, and is ready for someone to enjoy straight away.
My husband and I traded as Lower Barn Classic Cars Ltd. for 19 years, but unfortunately my husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2018 and we ceased trading in January 2019. We had bought this MGB in 1970, but although we had it painted, it was never completed ready for sale.
We kept the car after the business closed down, thinking that my husband might work on it as a hobby, but he was unable to do so, and the work needed was finally completed by local garages in 2022.
However we only used it a few times over the next two years, as my husband can no longer drive, and advancing years and arthritis make it difficult for me, so we decided to sell the car last summer, but as yet have had no serious enquiries, so I am now reducing the price, as we need to sell the car.
There are a number of old MOT certificates and some history.
It had an MGOC agreed valuation certificate of £11,000 in 2024.
The registration WON 38J has been valued at £800, but as I believe it may be the original registration, and is age-related, I am reluctant to remove it from the car. I can reduce the asking price further if the registration is not required.
