1966 Full-race MGB Roadster

This well prepared MGB Roadster has had thousands of pounds spent on it over the last 10 years and (we believe) has a copy of the Historical Technical Passport in the category - Competition GT Car Period F 1962 - 1965. This meant that at the time it could compete in FIA-sanctioned events for Historical Vehicles - March 2008. FEC 120D was stripped to a bare shell and rebuilt by the well-respected, Tech-Speed Motorsport of Leamington Spa and then maintained and prepared by the late Denis Welch at Oak Tree Motorsport in Staffs, subsequently being raced in the Masters Gentlemen Driver Series and the GT and Sportscar Series. At this time, it would have been eligible for HSCC Road Sports and innumerable MG Car Club events. The car has a full race specification engine built by Denis Welch (invoice for over £9,000 in the file) complete with a competition starter motor and the gearbox has straight cut close ratio gears built by Hardy Engineering feeding through a 'Powr-Lok' diff.

The car has an ATL Fuel Cell with twin pumps and racing fuel lines and has the obligatory plumbed in Fire Extinguisher system with inner and outer activation. It's also fitted with a wired in Transponder and lap time display.

Anybody associated with motor racing will be aware that competition cars will normally have parts (belts, seats fire extinguisher, tank bags etc) with a 'no longer legal' expiry date, and purchasers are requested to make themselves aware of these. This cracking MGB has not raced for a while and may need some replacement safety items.

This is a lovely full-race MGB and appears to have been properly prepared with no expense spared. Tech-Speed and Denis Welch do not mess about and we feel that this could be a very competitive car. With a small amount of tidying and some 'pre-race prep' you could be 'out there' next month!
