For Sale - MG Metro Turbo
MG Metro Turbo...only one of a few known in the USA. Very complete, no excuses car. I have used this car for almost daily transport for the last 2 years. Runs very well, everything works, nothing missing. Quite fast and handles like a go-cart. The suspension has been lowered, brand new (2 months) Superlite 6x13 alloy rims with Sumitomo tires. (original rims available with the car). Interior in like new condition, exterior has had a respray at some point in its life. Rollbar installed Metros were introduced in the UK in the early 1980's and were intended to replace the famous Mini. They use the same drive train, front and rear sub frame setup. They were very successful sellers and actually saved the British car industry. (for the time being anyway!!) There were plain Austin Rover versions, however the MG variants, both the MG Metro and the more powerful MG Metro Turbo were Rovers answer to keep the sporting MG name alive until the new MGF could be introduced. This is the familiar 1275 A-series A+ engine as used on Minis for decades. Please contact me for more photos and info.

For Sale - 1977 MGB
1977 MGB, asking price 3,500.00. Unfortunately I need to sell the car to pay for grad school. The car appears to be from the west and is extremely clean. It has a roll bar and high performance shop stickers from california under the hood. I think it has had some suspension updates because it rides better than any MG I have ever owned,but I am not certain. The car is a cool looking blue-green chamelion color with a cream racing stripe. It does have some slight surface rust spots from storage but should clean up very well. The interior is in good condition and is tan. The top is good accept for a small tear in one of the side windows which should be fairly easy to repair. The car runs, and has a webber carburator but needs some tuning. overall, it is a very good car to start with. Original British racing green paint can be seen in the trunk and under the hood.

For Sale - 1974 MGB Beauty
Listing=I am attempting to sell my car. It is a 1974 MGB and is practically totally redone. We have replaced and rebuilt many items on the car, repainted it, and have added a couple accessories such as a cd player and new speakers. The mileage is low considering the age of the car (90,xxx). There is nothing wrong with my car and it drives like a dream but i need a new one because of my long trips to college and back home. If anyone is interested, please reply as soon as possible to court_d91@hotmail.com. The price is low for the amount of work and money that has been put into it and I'm pretty positive that whoever buys this car will never regret it. Thanks.

For Sale--Cheap - Two 1969 MGB-GT's
I have two 1969 MGB-GT's, one that I used to drive, the other is its parts car. I have always considered them a great kit car--two can become one good one. However, I have had to give up my dream due to the onset of extremely severe arthritis--I have great difficulty just moving now, let alone working on the car. My car overheated on the way back from Sacramento in November 1998, and cracked the cylinder head, so it needs another one. I have rebuilt the front axle, installed the high-performance racing clutch from Moss, and was getting ready to install an MGB header (complete from front to rear). They have been parked at a friend's place outside of town, but the neighbors have been complaining, and the property owner wants to sell the lot now, so they can't stay there anymore. They have now been tagged by the Sheriff's Dept., and are scheduled for towing on Monday, August 25th, and I will be charged money for it. I would rather lose them to another MGB lover than to a junkyard and a crusher. I would like to get possibly $1,000 for them, but I am totally negotiable(realistic), and I just need to cover a few immediate living expenses. I would probably accept just about any offer. Please make me an offer! They must be moved by Sunday, August 24th!! Mostly I don't want to pay (money that I don't have) to lose them!! Someone could get a very sweet deal out of this.There's a lot of potential in these cars--there are dual HIF-4 carbs, that run very sweet and are easy to synch. There is a new water pump, still in the box. There are car covers for both, and the one I drove has painted wire wheels with knock-offs. Three of them I bought brand new with matching brand-new splined hubs. It has all five wire wheels. The parts car has the lug bolt wheels, so you could go either way. I also have most (or possibly all) of the chrome trim strips, brand new. Remember, speed is of the essence! They are scheduled to be towed away this Monday the 25th, so they need to go by Sunday. They cannot be moved on their own, so they'll need to be trucked and/or trailered. mail me at sgbloom2@gmail.com , or call me at 530-307-1302

$1,000 or best offer
2 (two) 1969 MGB - GT's
These MUST be removed NO lATER than Sunday, August 24th, as they are tagged for Sheriff towing on Monday. One I was driving, the other is a parts car. I was approaching them as one good kit car from the two. The car I drove needs a cylinder head. I removed it after it overheated--it's in the back of the car. It has dual HIF-4 carbs. This car has painted wire knock-off wheels, three of which I bought brand-new (with new matching splined hubs)--the parts car has lug-bolt wheels & adapters, so you could go either way. I rebuilt the front axle (all new rubber parts, etc.). I installed the high-performance racing clutch. I've redone lots of things. Includes lots of stuff (an MGB header exhaust system, complete end-to-end, brand-new water pump still in the box, and more), both have car covers. I stress, these MUST be removed NO LATER than Sunday the 24th of August, as the Sheriff will haul them away on Monday, and they will be lost forever, at a junkyard. Moving them will be your responsibilty, as I have no way to do this. I think they're a great project; I can't work on them any more due to severe arthritis. $1,000 or best offer takes them both.
