I understand this, but there are always loopholes. For instance, if nothing else, the engine block would be OE. Yes, there would likely be a challenge in listing it as a "new" car, but since the ENTI

On second reading, it occured to me that Matt might have been asking why the entire car couldn't be 100% new. I ask a question: Do you have the ability to make a completely NEW MGA body, engine, misc

I'm not sure. I do know that stretching springs from their mfg'd height changes all kinds of variables as far as spring rate through the compression range, etc. I'd like to hear what some others on t

Perhaps, but I'm not sure of that. A 3/8" difference in the spring could easily make a 1" difference it ride height. Remember your geometry: the location of the spring is further inside the moving a
