The classic vehicle in question is a MG MGB Roadster manufactured in 1978. This British sports car stands out for its Leyland White over black vinyl finish and its original powertrain featuring a 1.8-liter inline-four engine paired with a four-speed manual transmission. With its distinctive dual chrome headlights and wire-spoked wheels, this MGB was initially registered in New York before being acquired by the current owner's father several decades ago, reflecting its rich ownership history.
