Good morning my name is Chris, I have 2 MGBs first is a 1967 MGB GT Special I have owned since 1971. It has been done and re-done several times but the last time was almost 16 years ago. Still looks good and original, award winning. The second is a 1973 roadster that is in the process. It has a V-8, Ford rearend, 4 bar suspension with coilovers, front end of my design with upper and lower tube A-arms, coilover shocks, Nissan 300 ZX large diameter rotors and 4 pot calipers. It will be a sleeper. My other project is a 1939 GMC COE truck on a late chassis and 454 engine to use as a car hauler.
I am a machinist and designer specializing in molds for thermoforming medical devise trays. I also do consumer product clamshells. My other business is mgaftermarket.com. I design and machine stuff for my cars and other enthusiasts. I have several products sold through Moss Motors. My first is a brake caliper piston and seal tool for MGB and Midgets. I have a seat rail mounted cup holder (works good and looks good), a dash mounted cup holder for steel dash MGBs, a seat frame mounted adjustable fire extinguisher bracket and machined quick release mount. The latest product is a set of cones to spin balance our wire wheels on Hunter or Coats machines. I am always looking for new product ideas for the hobby.
Thank you.

Chris, welcome to the BCF! You've come to the right place and I'm glad that you're with us.

Nice-looking GT you have there. I'm jealous of your SoCal weather. I often thought about San Diego as a destination after I retired from the Army, but the cost of living there was a major deterrent.

Anyway, good luck and keep the faith.
 
welcome! and, would love to see pics - even the COE
 
Welcome from a fellow San Diegan. I live in Bonita and have and Old English White Bugeye.
Was that picture taken at British Car Day. I am pretty sure it was taken near Seaport Village.
Are you planning on attending the MG convention.
