    That thing would be an absolute blast to drive. Just over 2100 pounds in original trim...can't weigh much more than 2400 now. Should go cheap considering the circumstances.

    12.76 @ 114.04 bone stock. Koni yellow coil-overs, BMR watts, LCA and LCA relo brackets, Borla S-type axle back.

    1966 Coupe - 331 stroker - Bullet custom roller cam - cam and motor installed and dyno tuned by Rodeheavers Hot Rod - Astro A5 - McLeod RXT - 486 to the wheels - more fun than my little tires can handle

    My sister has a 1980 MGB which has 13,000 miles on the car. It has been setting in storage since the late 1980s. I always wanted to do a V-8 conversion on hers. My friend, when I lived in Florida, put a 350 Chevy in one. It was pretty crazy. This car could be awful cool to have.

    I need it like a whole in the head but I did threw in a $5000 bid. I was outbid in minutes and still didn't reach reserve.

    Unsold at $5100. Can't be worth much more than that.

    If it were in the US I'd go $7500. I know you can't build one for that
