Re: TD-60hp
Hey Marvin
I see you found your way here from the HAMB site. The HAMB guys don't like these kind of cars too much. That's a great TD you have. I'm amazed how well the engine fits, looks like it was factory installed. I have a few things to correct on my TD and it will be ready for the warm weather. take care, Dave |

Re: TD-60hp
Awesome! I can't wait to see more photos. It would be great if we could get enough info for a How It Was Done article.

Re: TD-60hp
So do I. Recently I was thinking that an MGC and a FHF would go well together (and still do) but what would also go well and also be period correct would be a FHF in an MG-SA. Too bad I don't have one.

Re: TD-60hp
Nice Marvin!
Jim, How about an MG YB? I have one that needs a little work and a new home. |

Re: TD-60hp
You know, it's amazing what a few inches of hood length does to a car's appearance. The one I think I'd *really* like to find is the WA but it's doubtful I'll ever find one of those in a condition I can afford. Still I wouldn't mind seeing a photo of your YB Brian, though I sort of doubt it's what I want.

Re: TD-60hp
Thanks Bill, I appreciate the offer. The bad thing is, first I don't have the FHF engine, and second I just filled the last empty storage bay with a '74-1/2 MGB roadster. So right now I have neither the room nor the money for it.
But if you wanted to trade for a B... I'm guessing that wouldn't work either. JB |

Re: TD-60hp
Yeah, see that's what I mean. It isn't a GT. Pretty rust free though.
