Well guys, it was an absolutely beautiful day for parts gathering.
Picked up the UHaul at around 8:30am, and started off on my long and winding trip to scenic Ruston, Louisiana.
After a little over 4 hours of driving through small towns with memorable names such as Dry Prong and Quitman, I arrived at the location of the Free MGB parts smorgasborg.
And all I can say is WOW. Nathan gave me some really nice stuff. Plenty of straight, undamaged trunk lids, plenty of doors and fenders, and even a brand new floorboard. Also picked up an 18V motor that I've already sold the rods out of ( to help pay for the cost of the trip ) and a spin-on oil filter adapter.
I really want to thank Nathan for allowing me the opportunity to have these parts. I'm still shocked at the amount of cool stuff, and it was absolutely well worth the trip.
Thanks again Nathan!

Hey Guinn -
I'll take pictures of both of them, and you can have your choice. One is drilled for a luggage rack, and the other is plain. Both will need some help, but are straight. Don't want anything for it - just pay the shipping - I'll get you the weight and size so you can price that from your end.

Glad to hear Zack thought the parts were worth the trip! Also glad to know they are going to go to good use, and hopefully help keep some of these old cars out on the road where they belong.

The parts were in Ruston, Louisiana. There is a small town not far from Ruston called Quitman.
