The vendor has provided the following:

• Mark 1 MGB GT in Grampian grey, which is a very rare colour
• Bought from Mathewsons in July 2022 as an abandoned restoration
• The bodywork was poor, but the engine looked good
• I started by stripping out the seats, interior panels and all the glass. I inspected all the bodywork and structure
• The wheel arches and chassis members that were rusted were cut out, and new metal let in
• New lower wing sections, sills and windscreen surround were welded in place
• The tailgate was not salvageable, so I sourced a new one and primed it up
• I cut back the rest of the bodywork to bare metal and primed it, ready for the top coat
• The car was then taken to the paint shop for painting
• The colour is Grampian grey, which is a very rare colour (although I did not know this at the time of buying. Not many were produced as grey was not a popular colour in the 60s and I have been informed that there are only about 30 left registered in this colour in the country)
• On its return from the body shop, I set about rebuilding the car with new interior panels and carpets
• The leather seats were cleaned and repaired
• The glass was refitted along with new lamps
• The road wheels were shot blasted, repaired, and powder coated, and new caps fitted
• On test driving, I found that the gearbox, rear axle and prop shaft were in a poor condition
• New parts were sourced, and the gearbox, rear axle and prop shaft were then reconditioned
• New brake parts and suspension were installed, and electrical items under the bonnet were replaced
• The engine was fully inspected and new gasgets fitted and tuned
• After painting, the underside was fully bilthelm wax undersealed, and all box sections wax injected
• A reconditioned gearbox, prop-shaft and rear axle were fitted, and all new suspension and brake parts installed
