Hello, I'm the lurker that JP so gently outed. I've been lurking here for a year or so and just needed a gentle nudge.
Well, I bought this car a couple of years ago. Body wise, it was in pretty good shape. A previous owner had put a 1275 in it. It smoked quite badly, so I rebuilt it. I redid the head with new valves and hardend guides and seats. I put new U joints in the drive shaft, redid all the suspension bushings in poly and upgraded the front anti-sway bar.
I bought the LE wheels from Hap at Acme. I also added an LE dash plaque and someday I'd like to get a front spoiler too. My son-in-law gave me a hand with the walnut door trim and dash. The radiator cover I made from a piece of stainless and had a friend laser etch the MG logo on it. And there is a lot more, I could go on all day...
Future plans include a Datsun 5 speed, so if anyone has or knows where I can find one let me know.
So, here's Emmie Girl.
