...by Rick's litany of progress, I actually made an improvement on my MGB
this weekend.
Since before I owned it (at least 25 years) my 66 MGB has sported a 1973
grill. It was somewhat damaged, and recently the badge disappeared.
Saturday, I was looking at it and a light bulb went on -- somebody once gave
me a damaged Mk. 1 grill -- maybe it has a badge. A brief search in the
rafters found it.
It actually wasn't bad -- better than the 73, for the most part, except the
pot metal center post was broken. It turned out the post is interchangeable.
Some twisting to straighten the surround, and a quick swap, and I finally
had the correct grill on the B.
I think it was smiling at me...
