SUMMARY
Just 39,000 miles, from long-term ownership, carefully restored and well-maintained, a really lovely example.
DESCRIPTION
A genuine 'Factory' MG B GT V8, finished in Damask Red, with a warranted 38,978 recorded miles (at the time of cataloguing), purchased by the late Alistair Naylor of Naylor Brothers fame in 1977, with a then-mileage of just 4,872. It was used sparingly by him until 1983 at which point some remedial work was required and the decision was taken to strip the MG and reassemble it with all new body panels. Acquired by the present custodian in 2007, the decision was taken to once again strip the car and refinish to his own exacting standards including a full engine, gearbox, overdrive and final drive rebuild, all correctly and superbly detailed setting this V8 apart from the average. With an original and correct interior, the GT is now finished to the very highest of standards and ready for the next chapter in its life.
