Greetings wise and illustrious MG list members.
   FIrst, I've rebuilt the webber carb on my 65 mgb, and it runs even worse than 
it did before.
   seems too rich. Much too rich. carb float bowl adjusted, and "top fits all the way down" on carb. body. I put smaller air and fuel jets in, (came with 
delux  rebuil kit) I've tried to find vacuum leaks. Called it names, nothing has 
worked. Any ideas appreciated.

 Second, I've finally run out of parking spaces.
I'm selling my 71 mgb. Located in the San Francisco Bay Area. 
71 MGB # GHN5UB 220942 G
engine # 18GK-WE-H-1768
Man 9/70 
stock color  orange, black int.
 
This car is a major project. #s match for motor though. Of course I'd rather you 
fix it than part it out. 
   4 speed, wire wheel car. Engine ran when I parked it a year or two ago.
 Both floors rusted badly. Flintstone mobile. 
    Car was near coast, so has more rust than usual for this state, despite the 
fact that it's a California car.
Pics and more info on request.
  Any reasonable offer considered $500 takes it away, bring a leash.
   Eric
