There's no doubt that the MGB is a well built car, stout and pretty roomy inside. Having worked in an English car wrecking yard for several years, I can say that MGB's survived accidents better than

Perhaps Jaguar engineers put an inverter in the perceived speed transmitters, cause when I'm driving the Jag at 80, it feels like 50, but the constabulary continues to think it's 80. I know it's not

Jay, Sounds somewhat like my Spit. It's officially registered as a 67, but any sly fellow will notice the two differences. Wipers park on the wrong side, and there is a slight dimple in the firewall

On a 65 B that wifey and I were redoing, we found a brake bodge. She was just pulling out of the driveway after we completed an engine rebuild, and the brake pedal went to the floor. There was a big

((SNIP)) mine. I am reluctant to fiddle with it at this point..... This seems out of character for you Ray. I feel compelled to tell you that you will remain disappointed with the handling of the MGB

Congratulations. If the carburettors are setup properly, they shouldn't need tweaking much at all. Usually the car will run poorly due to some other reason, and most people figure it's the carburetto

I've used the black "colormatch" wax on mine, and it seems to do a good job. I used it on the door handles also and it helped get the white out from previous waxes. Greg Greg Meboe meboe@wsunix.wsu.e

The benefit of twin tip exhausts is that they're twice as cool. Coolness goes up not linearly, but exponentially with increase in x-sectional area. I'm not sure this is something that can be explaine
