Welcome | Bradley Restoration.
In 2014 had a $5000 complete engine rebuild done by Autosport in Seattle, including boring it out and a cam installed.

There are 3321 miles on the engine after the rebuild.
It's a strong fast runner.
Some improvements included emissions removed, a Weber 38DGAS carb installed, a header, an oil cooler, a larger radiator fan, new wiring harness, new windshield, brake lines and much more.
I have all the receipts for all work done and the complete rebuild breakdown from Autosport.
The body is in very good condition, has original paint and always garaged.
Interior is in very good condition.
Due to a shoulder injury, an electric power steering kit was installed making it much easier for me to drive.

Comes with a hardtop in fair condition, some spare parts, many manuals, and the original bill of sale, window sticker, and Collectors plate.
Buyer should be familiar with MGB's and their idiosyncrasies.
There are 3 current problems with the car.
Run on after turning off the engine, you just let out the clutch.
MG forums think this is an electrical issue with fixes listed.
Hard starting after warming up but starts right up when cold.
Possible carb adjustment or a phenolic spacer under the carb to isolate from manifold or a heat shield.
Also an occasional clutch slip.
The clutch was replaced in 2007.
(I won't count an oil leak as an issue.
It is British.
I've loved the car for 34 years but I'm selling it because I'm in my mid 70's, don't drive it much now and I don't want to go through the work to get these things fixed.
Sale price, $5,500
