I'm Chris from Surrey (UK) and have recently bought a 1977 MG BGT. It's in excellent original condition, but has had a chrome bumper/grille conversion, leather seats and walnut dash added at some time in its life.
What's amazing is that a 41 year old car has only done 25,000 miles. No, it hasn't been clocked - I've got a load of old MOT certificates to prove it's genuine.
Of more interest to this forum is the ex Range Rover 3.9 EFi which I'm currently rebuilding and intend to fit into the B. It's fully stripped and cleaned up and I'm about to start re-assembly. Standard crank & pistons, new bearing shells, rings, cam, lifters and rocker gear.
I've got an LT77 gearbox and bell-housing and loads of other bits & pieces. The Rangie was an auto, so I've also had to get a flywheel and clutch. Thank goodness for eBay!!
I'll keep you posted.
