Looking for a picture of my MG-TF V-8 from the sixties. I owned int from 1964 to 1968. I bought it at a paint shop in Harrisburg, PA, and drove it while stationed at Ft. Meade, MD, and later while at the university of Alabama and while atnhome in Florence, AL. Sold it to my permanent regret in 68. It was BRG, white top and a louvered hood and nerf bar front bumper. The firewall had been cut back past the battery box for better weight distribution. When I sold it,it was powered with a 375hp fuelie 327 Vette engine in front of a Chrysler Torqueflite. Frame had been gussted along thearea of the rear motor mouts. Rear end was Healey. Original seats had been stolen by some scumbag while I was ivisiting home in Florence, AL during the summer of 1965., Fiberglass buckets were substituted. It had sixty spoke Healey wheels. Door hinges and gas tank straps were chromed, and leather hood straps were in place. Looking for ANY and all pictures, any quality. When I sold it, the buyer sold the engine to someone for his truck. Never was able to determine what happened to the rest of it... Thanks!
 
Thats a little before my time. Don't remember seeing a V8 TF in Florence. There were several Healeys that had 289's stuffed in them around. I have a 54 TF but its all original.
