    Default FREE MGB Project Car, a BIIIG project!

    This is a 79 or 80 MG-B Roadster. (I don't remember exactly)

    This car is up at my work. The owner decided to part this one for another car he had, even though the body on this car is nearly perfect! We did what we were told and he gave us this car. Now we need to get rid of this shell. It would need a LOT of work to make it a driving car again, but if you're looking for a big project, this might be it. It's got the rear suspension/differential.

    We're looking to get rid of this shell for free to someone who'll do something useful with it, or find something useful to do with it, as opposed to sending it to the crusher.

    The best way to get in touch with me for more questions would be through email [email protected]. And if you're VERY interested, you may call my work at 770-424-0411, my boss is Dan. Don't call him to ask questions about it, as he's an irritable kid of guy, but he does know I'm trying to find a home for this shell, so you may call with very serious inquiries.

    No test drives.

    Interested in the shell. We're making a 2007 GRM Challenge car. This would definitely be an "interesting" project.

    GRM FTW! Georgia Tech placed 20 something with our turbocharged E30 BMW. It was awesome. You should do it, we will see you there.

    That sounds good. Hope it comes together, brittish cars can be trouble. But I am sure it will be fine, it seems you are all knowledgable.

    Duude you wouldn't even need a rear end. I've done two 22R conversions in these cars and the stock diffs are holding up fine. This car, by the way, has the complete rear end & rear suspension.

    oh, and thanks for the bump
