Thanks for letting me in. I own and 1967 MGB and have since mid 1968. My cousin bought in January 21 and hated it. He sold it to me for something like $2,200. In 1970 it was hit while parked. I did some body work and sanded to the metal. The car was primed and painted a Cadillac Maroon which I though was cool then. I also had an Exhaust Tech header made and some head work. I was an everyday drive until 1972. Then it was a weekend driver. Eventually it was put in my parent's garage and only driven very occasionally. Got it registered again in the late 90"s but again it mostly sat. In 2007 I had what was supposed to be a complete mechanical rebuild. In 2015 I restored the interior. Th engine is bored 20 over and 10 off and has a new custom exhaust. The paint shows the results of camping trips and rallies and will stay that way.
