A rich history file & great patina ready for the next custodian. Our British racing green MGB comes with overdrive and a comprehensive history file and story including a certified copy of the factory production record from the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust. This is not a concours car, it's a real runner ready to be enjoyed.
