Here is a 1958 MG MAGNETTE ZB Black & Silver two Tone paint with Red Leather Interior, itted with 4 Speed manual Transmission, lorida Clear Title, n need of some restoration.
The car was imported from the UK in 1988, nd kept by the same owner until recently, e brought the car to Tampa Florida and used the car up until 1994, hen he took the car off the road to restore the vehicle to its former glory, t has been dry stored over the last 22 years and has had the interior completely redone to a very good standard, ll though he never got round to the body work, ar starts on the button, nd Chrome is excellent.
Inside
The seats have been recovered, ew carpets and head liner and sun visors, ash board and wood door trims are in great shape and i am not sure if they had been refinished or if they are original?, ither way the wood is in great shape, lass is all good order, o cracks, auges all seem to work fine, nd the inner chrome handles and trim are superb, oor panels all look new to.
Outside
The paint is looking its age and is in need of a repaint Body panels all generally look good with no major rot or rust problems, ts 57 years old, o there is some surface rust and marks as to be expected, ut as you can see from the pictures it looks ok, ll the chrome work is there and is in excellent condition with no pitting and will clean up very well, oth front and rear bumpers are exceptional and dent free, ead lights are in excellent condition and its fitted with some driving lights on the front bumper.
Mechanical
The MG Starts on the button and runs fine, nd idles fine with no untoward noise or fuss, drove the car approx 5 miles and it ran fine, speed manual gearbox changed ok and brakes worked as they should, ith drum brakes all round, on't expect it to stop like a modern car :)
There is some extra parts with the car, ee pictures provided, ooks like a complete door and trunk seal kit, ront spare Lights, eriod radio and MG parts catalog & workshop manual, lso some interesting pictures of the car, rom i would guess the 60's or 70s when the car was in England and some pictures of the original owner boating with family.
The Bad
Really needs full repaint and although most of the frame and floors are good, he front floor pans have had some welding done at some point to a poor standard and the left side really needs cutting out and redoing as there is still some rot and work is poor, ee pictures, ver haul and good complete car that requires some work to make it a great usable rare British Classic car.
