This custom build was not some amateur backyard

　　'stuff-a-V8-into-an-old-MG' shade tree project. The bodywork was

　　carefully modified to accommodate the new engine, headers, heavier

　　drivetrain and wider wheels, but done so subtly that the car still

　　looks stock. It has a Rover (Buick) aluminum V8 that has been

　　professionally blueprinted and uprated for increased power from its

　　now-308 cubic inches.

　　The car has a T5 5-speed transmission with appropriate ratios for

　　searing acceleration and comfortable cruising on the highway, plus

　　the clutch, driveshaft and limited-slip diff have all been upgraded

　　with heavier-duty components than the stock MG had.

　　It has high-back (heated!) Leather-covered bucket seats and

　　matching leather was used to trim the rest of the custom interior.

　　Unlike many conversions, the seating comfort, gear lever position

　　and overall feel is conducive to comfortable driving-and it even

　　has a quality convertible top plus a nice fiberglass hardtop comes

　　with it!

　　Custom-fabricated and ceramic-coated headers breathe through

　　Flowmaster silencers and down the dual pipes with a

　　terrific-sounding rumble. The car really scoots, and to compliment

　　all the added horsepower, cross-drilled oversized four-piston

　　Wilwood disc brakes were added front & rear behind the 16"

　　Panasport wheels.

　　The car is well-known, having passed through BAT in the past, plus

　　it was featured in the British V8 publication in this link:

　　The present owner has had his fun and is moving on to new projects,

　　so the MGB hot rod is available for the next guy smart enough to

　　not build one himself-this car is all done and available at a

　　fraction of what it would cost to duplicate it.

　　If you are considering one of the classic or collectible cars on

　　our website, be assured that coming for a personal visit to inspect

　　first-hand the car that has captured your fancy is very welcome. We

　　practice transparency in all of our descriptions, but believe that

　　nothing is as convincing as seeing and touching the car yourself.

　　Plan a few hours, so you can see, touch, feel and drive the car,

　　and enjoy a tour of our restoration shops to see 'where the magic

　　happens.' If your schedule is too committed, we also welcome a

　　knowledgeable agent visiting for you. Please understand that sales

　　are final, so the time for all due diligence is before you buy. Our

　　cars are sold AS-IS, since most are on consignment from owners. We

　　follow FTC guidelines for all sales and certainly want our future

　　clients leaving more glowing reports among our reviews!
