Does anyone out there have information on a Costello-modified MGC GT. It was a Snowberry White 1968 car, and retained it's MGC bonnet after being fitted with a Rover V8. Was last seen in the Brighton area in 2003-2004.

Thanks!

Have you tried contacting Lawrence Wood on his Costello site?

Mark,

Found this on the Costello site which looks like it may be a C engine bay looking at the rad, according to the site it belonged to a Steve Wright.

Kevin.

Kevin,

Thanks. I looked and that car is not a MGC, as it doesn't have the MGC engine cross member in place.

I also posted a message on the Costello site.

I spoke with Ken tonight.

He remembers doing an MGC, and is going to try to find any info that he may have on the car and get back to me.
