These are some more of my 50's MGB speedster proto bits. Whaddaya think? A friend thinks I should make a few more in a limited run. I like it, but then thats me,not everyone see's it as I do. So please give me your unvarnished opinions....I dont know where you live so what can it hurt... when I finish up the last off the stuff I will post it.
 
I,m too old to cry,but I cant figure out how to get my pix on here,or even if my text is getting thru. How bout this,here is my email wsw245@cs.com some one send me an email,and I will send them my pix which they will post for me??? TIA.
ps now the pix will be anti-cilmatic after all this fuss. I,m even kinda tired of lookin at em.
 
what is the 'url' of your photos?

Are they resident on the internet or only on your computer?
 
chuck - Wray...hey guys!! How're they hangin'?

OK after playing with winzip (of which I'm not proficient)_ I finally got the pics in a usable format and uploaded them to flickr. here they are linked from that site

Well worth the wait. That looks really great!

I haven't seen you in a while, Chuck, and hope everything is going well.

Tony, I sent you a box. I cleaned the bars up and painted them, they look pretty good. Thanks.
 
got it, Wray...still trying to figure out what it is...
 
When you figure it out please let me know. I've been looking at the mystery boot cover for too long.
 
I tried it on an early B & a late B & I see what you mean about its fit...& I don't think its for a Triumph.
 
Thanks Rick,glad you like it...Wow..tough crowd,looks like I may have offended the MGB purists. Its just my retro idea of what MG might have offered to the standard B. A little more spartan,a little more sporty, a-la Lotus,Porsche,Alfa etc. Maybe I showed it a bit early, I will try again after I assemble a few more of the pieces together.
 
Didn't offend me - I like it...now, tell me about those little wings.
 
Thanks Tony,and in the nick of time too..thought I was going to have to by pizza for everybody as a bribe. The little wings....pulled em off a fly.
OK...made my first set out of the vent glass,then broke it. Plastic for the 2nd set. Just a set of windwings cut and polished.(read scratched in the process of cutting). Next time will cover with tape.
ps..that dash is a 68/71 B dash. you guys probably knew that.
Latter I would like to question you guys on the choice of engines, beefed up B, or 215 V8. I have reasons to like both,and am trying to decide which is more in keeping with the "vision". Remember that I have some nice flared fenders, that will be on the car,will either engine work with the fenders?
