As snug as a bug in a rug!!!

I like mgb V8!!

Thats a real compliment because i think that most old cars just make perfect donors!!!





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

It's damask red, i thinks it's a trick of the camera that makes it look pink !!It's a factory built V8

what took so long?


Lovely car you have there. Sure it'll be worth every minute of prep!!!

Always loved the sebring version with wide arches and plexi-glass over headlights...

ITS NOT PINK (where did i leave my handbag)
I thought about the sebring look, but a factory v8 is quiet rare. so i couldn't do it.
It's been bought up to date with a Weber 500, Mega jolt, Gaz conversion all round and Poly bushes.
Every part of the brakes, steering, suspension is new !!

nothing wrong with pink other than being a bit girly.

those photos bring back memories, my 3rd car was a white '72 roadster that I learnt my mechnicals on - did the suspension thing and fitted twin HS6s which I was told by a MGB Specialists could not be done.

fiitted with twin K&Ns that use blank backplates that I cut so they would fit under the bonnet

this all happened back before digital cameras so don't have any pictures to hand.
