MG MGB 1.8 Liter I4 1978

General description : Beautiful Drop Top!

Just Toys Classic Cars is proud to present a really cool British car. Before you is a 1978 MG B. If you are like us and had one of these car back in the day, or just drove one and remember how much fun they were, then you know why you have to buy this car. These cars were not about tons of horsepower and torque, even though the little I4 under the hood had a bit of torque to it. These cars were about having fun driving. Going through the gears with the wind in your hair and having the time of your life.
This car was body on redone about 7 years ago and still presents very well today. The fit and finish are in great shape, and it looks good from 20 feet or 2 feet. This is just one cool car.
Well, now that we possibly have you going down memory lane, let's pop that hood and check out the cool little inline 4 cylinder under the hood. Unlike modern cars of today that are covered in plastic pieces so you can't even see that there is a motor in there, you could do head stands in this engine bay. These cars are very easy to work on, and this one has had a recent tune up, and it purrs like a kitten. So what do ya say we close that hood, come around and undo the top latches and put that top down and get ready for some fun memory lane driving. Once you hit that key and just listen to that motor purr, the ear to ear grin on your face isn't from some horsepower laced, tire breathing monster, it is from the memory of how cool these cars are and how much fun you are about to remember.
The black seats in this cool interior have been recovered and there are no rips or tears in them. The carpet, dash, and the top are all in great shape. Something that you have to appreciate on a car of this age. As you go through the gears with the wind in your hair, you remember when life was maybe a little simpler, and a lot more fun. This car brings back that feeling every time you get in it.
We offer classic car financing for those that would like to take advantage of the option. They offer great terms and financing, so you don't have to take all of the cash out of the bank at once. You can start that dream by going to http://www.justtoysclassiccars.com/financing and follow the easy step by step instructions. We look forward to speaking with you soon, and we look forward to making you the newest member of the Just Toys Classic Cars family.
