MGB MGB BRG witrh red interior??

Share this page

Wouldn't be surprised, Bruce. I think that combination was found on early Jags and T-series MG's. The red leather, when it fades a bit, actually doesn't look that bad with the green.

Ho, Ho, Ho!

The turn signals are on backwards
 
Sounded worse than it looked.
 
Looks like somebody hit the inside of that car with an ugly stick...just my humble opinion. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
I don't like it at all. Even if the paint was a different color, that's just too much red. Black carpet would have made a big difference. Perhaps even black panels with red piping to match the seats. But all red is not my thing.
 
I think it would be great if you were an elf at the North Pole though... or maybe St. Nick himself... or even Mrs. Clause. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
hmmmmm.... fuzzy white convertible top boot cover anyone? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
According to Clausager, that combination was actually offered for a while on MKI GTs, but nothing is said about it being offered on a tourer. Even if it was, the red seats would have had black piping.

Its not that bad... but not something I'd find attractive...

The selleer should reconize this: "a rare opportunity to acquire a unique color scheme available on a select few cars...." ought to be worth a price premium? Eh? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Not sure what you mean.

The widest part of the lense should be towards the outside of the wing, rather than the more horizontal position that it has in these photos.

Man...it's hard to draw on this screen!
 
Or you could say they're upside-down...
 
Popping the "turn signal mounted incorrectly" bubble:

Depending on your car, the way he has his turn signal lens is correct! I have factory photos of preproduction & early production cars with the lens that way - I have sales brochures with the lens that way

I've not jumped into that discussion because I didn't want to embarress the guy who started that tale...but, early on during the design & initial run, they were correct...about the time they started putting amber lense on the 2-piece lens, they started turning them around.

If its a 2-piece clear lens, either way is possibly correct - according to factory photo literature.

I did not see that picture at first but now understand what this was about. Apparently though it can be either way.

Mine are on right - hehehehehe
 
I'd never seen a B from Royston or the dealers with those lenses/lights "running lights" inboard. Very interesting, Tony.
