1964 MGB – Classic Early Example with Pull-Handle Doors

This beautifully presented 1964 MGB is a standout example of the desirable early models, featuring the sought-after “pull-handle” doors and a vibrant red exterior over black interior. Showing a believed 28,921 original miles, this MGB combines originality with excellent care, thoughtful updates, and a well-documented maintenance history.  Equipped with a desirable overdrive transmission for enhanced cruising capability.

The body is rust-free and benefits from a high-quality professional repaint, completed in 2020, which presents superbly at a 9.5 out of 10 with excellent depth, gloss, and minimal imperfections. The black interior remains clean and true to its period, highlighted by its well-preserved original details.

Mechanically, the car is in great condition. The engine runs well, and the gearbox shifts smoothly and precisely. All electrical components, lights, and gauges are fully operational.  Also included are the following:
