Very nice!
Really nice car.
This seems to be well built. I have seen it on BaT and read the comments there. I would have thought more mods would have been done to the suspension than just a refreshing, and the brakes weren’t modded. I believe the owner has stated he drove it to several MG meets around the region and wouldn’t hesitate to take it anywhere. I like it.
How do I enquire about the white one?

Very nice want more info
I Bought this car on BaT. Drove it home from TN to MA over 1000 miles. What a terrific little hotrod! The seller did a very nice job on the build.
This engine/transmission combo works very well together. The car is a delight to drive. I also have a stock ’74 MGB-GT with 4spd and o.d. that I liked very much till I got behind the wheel of this one.
No complaints on the suspension. It is tight and handles the extra torque with aplomb. No squatting. I think the similar weight of the engine and trans to the original helps.
I’d recommend this to anyone considering repowering their B. Or you could bolt on a supercharger in a heck of a lot less time.
Hi Jerome. Congratulations on your purchase. Thanks for your insight into how the swap is performing.
