c.1977 MGB GT, 1800cc. Registration number unknown. Chassis number G23D 085281 (see text). Engine number 18V847 H4616.
The Mk III MGB was introduced in October 1971, with a revised interior, with centre console housing rocker switches and two vents in the middle. An armrest was fitted between the front seats, which now had nylon inserts.
In October 1974, the model underwent its most dramatic visual change when large black 'rubber' bumpers on front and rear were added to meet US impact regulations. The nose was redesigned and front indicators incorporated into the bumper. The ride height of the car was increased slightly and overdrive included as standard.
This example was found in a garage of our deceased vendors garden, the body appears quite sound but was undergoing some works and then left. Since the initial viewing and its arrival at Spicers the chassis number and engine number have been removed, presumably for some illegal reason by persons unknown. DVLA and the police have been informed.
There is no paperwork or keys with this lot and buyers should satisfy themselves as it is completeness.
