Fascinating film to see how these cars are put together, especially the GT. I spent 22 years living in UK, returning home in 2010 and yes the ravages of rust can be an issue in UK with classic cars. I owned a 73 MGB GT V8 and a MGC GT (not at the same time!) and found it interesting where they choose to rust compared to Oz. I also bought a one-owner P6B Auto in UK, stunning interior, mechanically very good but the base-unit was terrible, as I was to learn later on. Now back in Oz I recently bought a 1967 MGB GT on wires, it is totally rust free with its original paint. I might add I owned the very same GT in the 1980s before selling it in 1988. I found it by chance 4 sale online, it needs nothing done to the bodywork after 57 years.

ОтветитьAfter having restored several rusted out Bs, sills, floors, doors quarters, I wonder if there is anything done differently with the new bodyshell to improve its longevity?.
It seems so worthwhile to invest in a shell over battling rust on an original. I wonder if there are plans to add MGA to the repertoire?

ОтветитьAnscheinend gibt es überhaupt keine Rostvorsorge.
ОтветитьI know what's on my Christmas list every year from now on
ОтветитьI thought Moss Motors out of California bought British Heritage?
Nevertheless, Moss Motors charge $999.00 for a Wing/Fender so God knows what a full Body would cost. There’s a company in LA that charge $375.09 for a Fender.
Great video.
ОтветитьStart doing this for the BIG HEALEYS Should also make provision for a more modern motor
ОтветитьYES! Keep building!
ОтветитьThe panel alignment on my Heritage shell is awful. The panel The windscreen attaches to isn't square with the body. One wing sits further forward than the other. The windscreen doesn't align properly. One leg of the bracket holding the clutch and brake master cylinders had to be shortened so the mounting holes would match up. The bonnet to wing gap gets bigger as you get closer to the headlights. The space for the grill is too small. The location of the bonnet latch panel doesn't line up with the latch on the bonnet. One door latch is too tight to open and close properly. The hole in the door for the safety latch mount is at a different height than the mounting location on the body
ОтветитьHaving had a few MGB cars in the past i now fancy building a roadster. What did slightly concern me was in the video that. Before fitting the front wings the area's were sanded etc. At no time before fitting the wings did i see any anti corrossion treatment. A bit worrying that after a few years rust will start to creap in. Or did i miss something.
ОтветитьI'd Like to say: "Oh-MG". wow, ordering my catalog today
