STK 2103 1974-1/2 MGB GT The affordable MGB was a car that was mainly intended to be a two-seater replacement for the hugely successful MGA. The GT version was announced in October 1965 and was an overnight success. In its 15-year production spanand#44; the GT proved to be a very popular and adaptable car with over 125and#44;000 built. The Italian design studio of Pininfarina was responsible for the GTs pleasing lines. It was one of the first mass production cars to benefit from the relatively newly developed computer aided design techniques. Due to the GTs superior aerodynamics a top speed of over 100mph was achievable. This 3-owner 1974and#44; fully restored GT is a good example of that design. The Damask Red original colorand#44; applied in 2015 (base/clear)and#44; is virtually flawless. A set of period-correct Minator 14 spokes couldnt look better. All chrome and stainless components are top-shelf. Body rubber seals have been replaced. The black interior has been fully restored (carpets/ panel kit/seats) and looks as it did 42 years ago - and all of the electrics work. Mechanicallyand#44; the GT was virtually identical to the roadster. The GT was fitted with the roadsters reliable five bearing engine. This cars engine was completely rebuilt - cylinders boredand#44; new pistonsand#44; .010/.010 grind crank/rodsand#44; new cam (stock grind) and new lifters and bearings. The cylinder head was totally reworked including hardened seats for use of todays lead-free fuel. Both original SU HIF carbs were rebuilt and a new fuel pump and fuel tank were installed. The 4-speed manual with electric overdrive operates flawlessly. Brakes are disc/drum. A new master cylinderand#44; rear wheel cylinders/shoes and flex lines have been installed. Documentation and photos of the restoration are available. This British icon just makes you smile. It is looking for a new driver. Why not you?
