Hello, Octagonoids 
 
About 13 years ago, I was a member of this list but gave it up when the
Spridgets split off.  Hope you all have been doing well and enjoying your
MGs.  I promised a friend of a friend that I would post a notice of his MGB
for sale on this list, so here goes:
 
If anyone is interested at all, please contact David Schnorenberg:
schnorenberg@hotmail.com, or 252-349-9065.  The car is located in New Bern,
NC.   
 
Steve - the car is a 1975 MGB convertible.  Exterior is yellow, interior is
black, top is black.  Bumpers are rubber, which I think was standard
post-1974.
 
I've had ownership for four years.  My father-in-law purchased shortly
before his death, and I purchased from my mother-in-law.  I had all
intentions of restoring, but just don't have the time at present.  The car
is perfectly drivable, and the following components have been replaced in
the past five years: fuel pump, brakes (shoes, lines and master cylinder),
tires, exhaust and top.  I replaced the battery this week. The brakes and
tires have less than 2000 miles.
 
The frame, underside and body are solid.  Some light surface corrosion to
the body, but nothing serious.  The car spent the majority of its life in
West Virginia, and there is some evidence of minor body patching.  The top
has a small tear (about 3 inches) just aft of the passenger side window,
which I have had patched, and is hardly noticeable.  The interior is in what
I would consider better than average condition for the age of the car.  The
dash is not cracked, the seats covers are not worn, although the seat
cushion support needs some work.  It has a mahogany steering wheel, and the
chrome around the instrument gauges has some light corrosion.  All the
instrument gauges are in working condition.  It has interior carpet (good
condition), and a full set of floor mats.  The engine is strong, and the
4-speed transmission is fairly smooth.  The passenger side mirror glass is
missing.
 
This is a great project car, and currently suitable as a daily driver.  The
odometer lists around 77000 miles, although I can't vouch for its accuracy.
I've invested over $1000 in new (not overhauled) parts, and am asking $2500,
but will consider any offer.
 
I've attached a single picture, more available upon request.  Please feel
free to share all info.
 
I appreciate your assistance.  R/ Dave
