Saw that one at the New Orleans show...those headlight assemblies stick outside the fenders almost 1/2"!

There's a fella with a black B that has installed those types of light but are flush with the fenders; looks much better.

Mark - is that the one in Canada? If so, he used smaller lights..we talked when he was doing his.

Now he has a huge reversed scooped hood on it & port holes in the front fenders.JPSmit said:

He's done away with the port holes. The lights may be smaller, but they do look better than the ones in the picture above.

Wasn't he in an accident with it a short while ago?

The Canadian car was built by Dennis McIntyre. If you check out his build information and photos I think you'll see that although the lights fit the fenders well they aren't really aligned correctly to the road. Tony at least took that into consideration. I think Dennis had to "roll" his housings in to fit the fender lines and that throws off the alignment. https://www.britishv8.org/MG/DennisMcIntyre.htm

Bill, that could concerning his headlights.
The car was in a accident; very minor damage to the rear valance I believe. I looks quite a bit different now compared to the picture Bill posted; big air scoop now.

Yep, that's the car...we talked during his restoration & he admitted he was following my ideas - only cheaply to fit his budget - & he has done a nice job staying in that budget.
