MG introduced their Model B at the 1962 Earls Court Motor Show in London. The British sports car had front disc brakes, could achieve speeds of 100 mph, and delivered up to 28 mpg. In 1968, revisions were made to the MGB's interior due to US safety rules, but sales increased nonetheless. For 1972, changes included a glove box, fresh-air vents, a console, and a more powerful heater. For 1973, the recessed grille was replaced by honeycomb mesh, with prominent octagon badge.
This MGB from 1973 has chrome bumpers, original finishes and trim, and a new top. It is believed that just five owners have cared for the car since new. Mr. Charles Estill of Eugene, Oregon owned the car for 21 years and put just 1,713 miles on the odometer. Mr. Estill sold to the car to its current caretaker in 2014. At that time, the mileage on the odometer indicated 18,624 miles.By Daniel Vaughan | Feb 2015
