Look like chrome bumpers. If you check them out pls go slow to give critters a chance to scram first, and if there's possums when you open stuff up they'll probably just play dead. We like the bugeaters!
That's a reasonable distance from me, so I can enable if someone is serious
Might be a quick fix n flip, cheap summer convertible. MG's are pretty simple.

We need two more challenge cars right?
Good deal even for parts. I was just in Indy for the 500 and have family out there so I always do my searches for trash to drag home.
I’m wondering if you can join them together to make one long MGB. Or a double-wide one?
Am I the only one who thinks those are still overpriced? I doubt the floors even still exist sitting on earth like that.
Also funny that british cars always come in a set of a two or more...
In reply to maschinenbau :
Gotta have a spare, right?
And, yeah, floors? What floors?
1. Buy rust MGBs cheap.
2. List for exorbitant price as a rare Flintstone Edition
3.
4. Profit

“rare”
Just thinking about this a bit. Growing up, our friends’ dad had an MGB in the garage–on jack stands, I think, and covered with stuff. It looked like the typical stalled project.
What just hit me: At the time, that car might have only been like 10 years old.

My dad drove a gt6 in high school. Around 2007, he was trying to convince me to get one as a mostly DD and was saying how reliable his had been. His rundown of necessary repairs included replacing fuel lines/pump, wiring problems, etc. Some pretty serious stuff for a fairly new car (at the time). I pointed out that it was unlikely the reliability had improved in the 30ish years since his ownership. He never made the suggestion again. I bought a 944
