I'm only 40 miles south in Fredericksburg. I'd love to know more about the MGC.

The Craigs list posting has expired,and I did not save any of his photos. Sorry. I will email the chap tomorrow, perhaps he could resend the pics. If not, I will try to take a few when I go see the cars. Best I can do for the moment.
Here's the skinny. The C GT has been lightly disassembled. Front wings are off, doors I think. It's full of boxes of parts. The C bonnet is leaning on it. There's a B bonnet covering the engine. It's sort of rusty, but it's a dark, creepy garage, and it's hard to see. It's been sitting for minimum 6 years, so it's filthy and the mice have moved in. The yellow B roadster has a hardtop, needs resto, and appears rusty. It's complete, though.
The '69 B could be a ratty driver with application of a pressure washer, freshening up the hydraulics, and sundry little stuff.
He has titles for all 3. I'd say he's looking for around 2 grand for the yellow B and the C as a pair.
There's untold parts in there. Someone (or a consortium of concerned individuals) should bring trailers, a truck, a generator and lights, and rigging gear to get it all. It's a treasure trove of filthy MG parts.
I'm seeing what's up, and going to try to get the '69 next weekend.

Not worth it from your description.
I spoke with the guy today.
The 2 Bs are sold, but the new owner hasn't picked up yet. Seller is getting a bit antsy.
He sold the spare C GT engine and the C GT bonnet. The C GT complete (?) car for resto is still there and for sale.
I imagine there's a pile of parts.
There are purportedly several transmissions and an overdrive in the shed.
