Hey all, new to the MG stuff but not new to cars or restorations. I went and visited a guy selling off a bunch of stuff that is in a field and he had two MG motors out there. One was complete, (see photo), the other is disassembled but only missing the rotating assembly. I'm not sure how long they've been out there but probably a good while.
My question to you guys, I know it'll cost me some money and I'm ok with that, but do you think they're salvageable; block, head, crank, etc? If so I'd like to do one full rebuild/restoration. I've found the sites where almost everything can be purchased new so I know parts are out there. He's asking $150 for both motors, he doesn't have a car they go to. Any input would be appreciated.
