This 1969 MGB Roadster was acquired by the current owner on BaT in February 2025 after residing with the previous owner in California for 31 years. It was refinished in Tartan Red in 2003 at which point the interior was retrimmed in Black leather. Powered by a 1.8-liter inline-four paired with a four-speed manual transmission, the car features 14″ knock-off wire wheels, a black soft top, dual side mirrors, a wood-rimmed Lecarra steering wheel, and a Clarion CD stereo. This MGB has 62k miles and is offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with service records, a removed roll bar, and a clean Michigan title in the current owner’s name. The car was refinished in 2003 in Tartan Red and features a black soft top, a driver-side door mirror, and a mirror and an antenna affixed to the right front fender. Silver-finished 14″ knock-off wire-spoke wheels were mounted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tires under current ownership. Stopping power is provided by front disc and rear drum brakes. The cabin houses bucket seats reupholstered in Black leather under previous ownership, and interior features include a cabin heater, a center console, a wood gearshift knob, and a Clarion CD stereo linked to Sony Xplod speakers. The wood-rimmed Lecarra steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 62k miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership. The 1.8-liter inline-four was factory-rated at 95 horsepower and 110 lb-ft of torque and features twin SU carburetors. The engine is said to have been rebuilt in 1996. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. A previously installed roll bar is included in the sale. The Michigan title lists a VIN of “BMC69GHN4U158929G” which adds a prefix, “BMC69”, of the manufacturer and model year to the car number shown on the tag above. Filed under: mg , mg b
