MG MGB Submodels
The MG MGB launched in 1962, replacing the MGA with a more modern unibody structure. Produced until 1980, it became one of the best-selling sports cars of its era, offering accessible top-down fun to hundreds of thousands of buyers. Available as a 2-seat roadster or a stylish 2+2 GT coupe designed by Pininfarina, the MGB is a cornerstone of the classic British car scene.
Collectors appreciate the MGB for its simple mechanicals, huge parts availability, and strong club support, making it an easy classic to own and maintain. Early chrome-bumper cars (1962-1974) are typically more sought-after than the later rubber-bumper models, which were altered to meet US safety regulations. The rare, factory MGB GT V8 models with the Rover 3.5L V8 are the most valuable and powerful of the breed.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the MGB's biggest enemy. Pay close attention to the sills, castle rails, floorpans, and the wheel arches, as repairs can easily exceed the car's value.
- Check for low oil pressure on the B-series engine when it's fully warm, which can indicate worn main bearings. Blue exhaust smoke suggests worn piston rings or valve stem seals.
- Test the electronic overdrive unit if equipped. It should engage and disengage smoothly in 3rd and 4th gears without hesitation or noise.
- The Lucas electrical system can be temperamental. Check that all gauges, lights, and switches function correctly, as tracing electrical faults can be tedious.
- Inspect front suspension kingpins for wear by jacking up the wheel and checking for play. Worn lever-arm dampers are also common and will result in a bouncy ride.
