Car was disassembled a few years ago for a repaint. Car was painted but was never sanded and buffed and thus never reassembled. Prior to that it WAS a running driving licensed COMPETE car. ALL of those parts are included with the car. However the paint has taken some abuse from bumping around my shop. Car would be best to repaint. However ALL of the panels are straight NO RUST NO BODY WORK required PAINT ONLY.. The Body was restored in 2002 with NEW sheet metal. Not rust repair. PO had run the car into a bollard at the fuel station. Car is SUPER STRAIGHT! Car does not have a rear end.. I used to build IRS units for these cars, the last one under this car was sold and plans for the latest version never materialized. I have some parts for a 4 link setup as it would be the most cost effective solution to get the car back on 4 wheels. IRS units run about 4K with NO options, a 4 link could be built for fraction of the price with a narrowed 9". MGB rear axle could be reinstalled but front spring perches would need to be replaced. The Price.. Car as it sits ALL PARTS, Engine, Trans, Electronics $3500.00 Open to trades for a 4x4 truck of equal value, I could also put a little in.. Delivery within 500 miles part of sale price.. Outside that radius is possible at buyers expense please contact me for details. email me at tbudde@theneonworks.com for further info and deals. Car is currently located near San Antonio, TX.
