Due soon into The Forge is this beautifully restored 1975 MGB Roadster, finished in its original factory shade of Damask Red with black trim. As one of the final chrome bumper cars, it has recently undergone an extensive nut and bolt restoration by a respected MG specialist, resulting in a superb example that has been rebuilt with care and attention throughout.

Finished in its original factory colour of Damask Red with black trim, this 1975 MGB Roadster is one of the last desirable chrome bumper models and has recently completed a comprehensive nut and bolt restoration by a respected MG specialist.

The body was stripped back to bare metal, professionally repaired where required and repainted to an exceptional standard, while the attention to detail continues throughout the car. Under the bonnet sits a new Ivor Searle unleaded engine, paired with a Weber carburettor upgrade for improved drivability and smooth performance. The four-speed manual gearbox is fitted with overdrive on both third and fourth gears, making the car equally enjoyable on longer journeys.

The restoration also included a new mohair hood with a zip-down rear window, while the original Rostyle wheels have been refurbished with powder coating to retain the correct period appearance. Beneath the car, the underside, suspension components and axle casings have all been restored and detailed to the same high standard, creating a finish that's every bit as impressive underneath as it is on top.

Having had just six owners from new, the car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file containing previous MOT certificates, invoices and restoration photographs, documenting the care and investment it has received over the years.

Driving every bit as well as it presents, this MGB offers an opportunity to own a beautifully restored chrome bumper Roadster without the time and expense of undertaking a restoration yourself. A superb example that's ready to be enjoyed on the road, shown at events or added to any classic collection.

At The Forge, we specialise in classic, vintage and enthusiast vehicles. Every vehicle we sell is unique, with its own history, character and imperfections. Unlike modern vehicles, classic cars require a different level of ownership, maintenance and understanding.

We pride ourselves on providing honest, detailed vehicle descriptions, extensive photography and videos, enabling prospective purchasers to make an informed buying decision.


No Commercial Warranty:

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, vehicles sold by The Forge are not supplied with a commercial warranty or guarantee.

This reflects the age, originality and individual nature of the vehicles we sell. Mechanical components on older vehicles are subject to wear, and future maintenance and repairs should be expected as part of classic vehicle ownership.

For customers who would like additional peace of mind, an optional third-party mechanical warranty is available, subject to vehicle eligibility and the warranty provider's terms and conditions. Please contact us before purchase if you would like further information or a quotation.

Whilst every effort is made to ensure that all descriptions, specifications and information are accurate, they are intended as a guide only and are based on the information available to us at the time of advertising.
