MGB Does this look like tonneau for mgb?

I have a tonneau that came with my 1500 midget that doesn't fit. I asked on the sprite forum and they think it might be for a mgb.

When I place it against the one that fits its longer and wider plus has different shape. Also what do these things sell for these days?

Thanks
 
Yup. 1969, most likely.
 
If it were from a 1969 MGB (or C), it would have had cutouts for the shoulder straps mounted on the top deck.

This tonneau will probably fit any MGB from 1972 through the end of production in my opinion.
 
Looked like the TALL headrest pockets to me. "One Ping Only."

...I bow to your detailed info, Rick. :laugh:
 
:smirk:
 
I have one for the 72 and it doesn't look like that. Mine doesn't have a large rounded front like this one but the back corners look right with the exception of the snaps. Mine has the pin type snaps, unless I'm looking at it wrong, these appear to be the button type? PJ
 
I see four button snaps...for the windscreen uprights and the area at the rear of each door.

ALl of the others are the Lift-A-Dots.

This is identical to the tonneau from my 1978 MGB.
 
He has prior knowledge, Don.
