1964 MGB Roadster MK I Pull Handle

Description

So, I’ve got this 1964 MGB Roadster MK I with the original pull handles — the kind that were on every early MK I, right off the production line. It’s British Racing Green with black leather seats and white piping, and it’s exactly how it left the factory back in '64.

The MGB came in after the MGA, and while it’s not a rocket ship by today’s standards, back then it was seen as a real step up — more room, better comfort, wind-up windows, and a bit more grip without being too flashy. The suspension was a bit softer than the MGA, but it still handled well, especially on the open road.

This one’s a true original — no mods, no swaps. All the key features you’d expect from a classic MK I are there: 3-bearing engine, 3-synchromesh gearbox, banjo rear axle, and that classic front wing gap between the side light and grille. I’ve got the full heritage certificate and a massive photo album showing the car’s restoration — from nut and bolt to finish. There’s even a copy of the newspaper that covered it winning Autoglym Car of the Show at The Festival of Transport.

I’ve had this car for years, and it’s been properly restored and maintained. It’s tax and MOT exempt, but I’ll do a fresh MOT for you when you take it over — just to give you peace of mind. I’m happy to show it to you when you’re ready.

It’s not just a car — it’s a piece of British car culture, and this one’s one of the best examples we’ve seen. If you’re after a real period correct MK I with pull handles, this is probably the one you’ve been looking for.

I’m based in Dunscroft, Hatfield, so it’s a short drive from there. I accept all major cards, part exchange is possible, and I’ll arrange free UK mainland delivery.

If you’re interested, just give me a shout — I’m happy to talk through it or show you the car when it’s convenient. No pressure, just real talk about what you’re looking for.

P.S. I’ve been around classic cars for a long time — I know what to look for, and I’ve never seen a car like this in such good original condition. It’s not just a restoration — it’s a true-to-period gem.
