The MG MGB is one of a series of fine open-topped British roadsters produced by the iconic automaker Morris Garages. Today, Morris Garages or MG is under Chinese ownership and makes a range of SUVs and sedans, but they’re working on a slick new electric roadster to recapture the spirit of yesteryear. However, the popular saying goes, there’s nothing like the original. So why not capture that spirit yourself and buy this Florida-based 1979 MG MGB Roadster from us? With a mere 74,767 miles to its name, this car has been in the custody of the same owner for 32 years and reportedly includes recent maintenance receipts as well. Join us as we take a deep dive into what’s on offer here, and don’t hesitate to call or DM us if you want to own this beauty.
This 1979 MG MGB Roadster comes in Vermillion Red which tends towards orange but showcases its deeper red hue when you look closely. The car sits on a lowering kit and includes its signature convertible soft top with tonneau cover – after all, top-down is meant to be its primary modus operandi. The car also includes a chrome mesh grille, chrome window handles, and has undergone a chrome bumper conversion. Slide into the two-seat interior and you’ll find comfortable yet supportive black leather seats, a leather wrapped steering wheel and a comprehensive analog gauge pack. There’s no touchscreen or myriad digital distractions to keep you away from the pure act of driving with this car. There’s a radio with cassette tape player for your classic tunes, as well as a heating and ventilation system for comfort. Pop the trunk and you’ve got some decent space for a few soft bags, plus the spare tire.
The beating heart of this 1979 MG MGB Roadster is its 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine, sending drive to the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual gearbox. Fitted for appearance, the engine is dressed up with a chrome valve cover and belt pulley. For induction, it is equipped with twin polished HS carburetors with K&N filters.
Few cars embody the classic British roadster spirit quite like the MG MGB. Compact, stylish, and approachable, the MGB defined open-air motoring for a generation of enthusiasts. This 1977 example, finished in British Racing Green with gold side stripes and Union Jack motifs, pairs vintage charm with meaningful updates. With a freshly installed replacement motor from Moss Motors (showing approximately 1,300 miles since installation), this Roadster blends collectibility with renewed drivability.
Morris Garages, or MG for short, used to be an iconic British automaker, responsible for some stunning sports cars, as well as more workmanlike family sedans. Today, the brand is owned by the Chinese and churns out mostly SUVs. The spunky sports cars of yore are no longer, save for examples like this 1975 MG MGB from Charleston, South Carolina. The MGB was made between 1962 and 1980, as the successor to the MGA. Nearly 524,000 cars were made during this time, but not many were preserved as time progressed on. So, this car, with its 75,790 miles and replaced convertible top represents not only a great way to enjoy a weekend back road blast, but a pretty darn good investment as well.
After the war ended, the popularity of classic British roadsters skyrocketed. Brands like Triumph, Sunbeam, and MG were able to market a great deal of fun, affordable, and nimble roadsters to a new generation of baby boomers who were happy to lap them up. While we may no longer live in that era, we can certainly do our best to recapture some of the joy that piloting a British roadster can bring, thanks to our featured car. It’s a 1977 MG MGB Convertible, known to be a compact, affordable, and stylish car. Located in the Bronx, New York, this example is reportedly showing just under 20,000 original miles on the odometer and is accompanied by its owner’s manual. With its original paint and a manual gearbox paired to the well-known 1.8-liter inline-four, this MGB presents as a time capsule from the golden years of British roadsters.

Present today is your getaway into driving nirvana, and it takes shape with this lovely 1952 MG TD Roadster. This classic British motor hails from Monterey, Tennessee, and has just a reported 89,208 clocked in.
Giant Killers. That’s what nippy British sports cars like this 1960 MG MGA are often referred to as. Unlike our typical American performance car with its large V8 and massive dimensions, British sports cars use small, frugal engines, dinky dimensions and light weight to punch massively above their class. This also makes them truly exciting to drive because remember, its always more fun to wring out a car to its very last drop of performance rather than be forced to merely toe the throttle for much of your driving time. With cars like the MGA, you can enjoy rorty revving engines and crisp cornering, all without exceeding the speed limit most of the time. If you’d like to get in on the classic British sports car action, this 3,850-mile car currently waits in Fort Mill, South Carolina, for a new owner.
The 1965 Ford Mustang GT helped ignite America’s pony car revolution and quickly became one of the most influential performance cars of the 1960s. Combining sporty styling, compact dimensions, and V8 power at an attainable price point, the Mustang transformed Ford’s image overnight and created an entirely new segment in the automotive world. Showing just 18,813 miles, this example is finished in elegant Vintage Burgundy over a black interior and equipped with the highly desirable GT package, complete with a 289ci V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. With its timeless proportions, unmistakable styling cues, and engaging analog driving experience, this first-generation Mustang GT represents the pure essence of mid-1960s American performance motoring.
Few Mopars capture the raw attitude of the early 1970s muscle car era quite like the Dodge Demon. Introduced as a more aggressive and youthful version of the Dart lineup, the Demon combined compact dimensions with serious V8 performance, quickly becoming a favorite among street racers and Mopar enthusiasts alike. This 1972 Dodge Dart Demon Swinger is a particularly eye-catching example, finished in factory-code Butterscotch and equipped with a desirable 340ci V8 under the hood. Showing just 1,793 miles on the odometer, this Demon features a factory-documented list of performance and appearance options including the J54 Sport Hood, V21 performance hood treatment, dual exhaust, and factory stripe package. Combining authentic Mopar muscle styling with tasteful updates such as custom Demon-logo seating and a Hurst shifter, this classic Dodge delivers the unmistakable personality that made the Demon name legendary.
This 1993 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible represents the final production year of the legendary Fox-body Mustang, a platform that helped define affordable American V8 performance throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s. Showing just 34,294 miles, this example stands out thanks to its highly desirable 5.0-liter V8 drivetrain, striking Bright Red over Opal Gray color combination, and classic open-top Fox-body styling. The LX trim remains especially sought-after among enthusiasts for its cleaner, lighter-weight appearance compared to the GT models, while the convertible configuration adds a more relaxed cruising personality to Ford’s legendary pony car formula. Equipped with desirable factory features along with tasteful aftermarket audio and exhaust upgrades, this low-mileage Mustang delivers both collector appeal and unmistakable 1990s character.
