Come on! Since when has the lack of accurate information prevented anyone
from becoming an expert.
Sorry, couldn't help myself. I have been following a thread on the correct
color for brake servo caps on a Jaguar list. The concensus is whatever
color the local Jaguar club believes them to be, is correct, and you had
better have them that color.
Seriously Adrian:
As Larry pointed out, the cars were built as they came in. Since
any MGB shell can be converted, there isn't much hope of finding out where
all the real cars ended up. I'd guess many got reshelled when the original
bodies rotted out. I have run across one car that supposedly was originally
a Costello that went to Australia, then to the US. Now it is sporting a
Ford V8 and there is nothing to indicate that it was ever touched by
Costello's hands. Does the fact that at one time it was converted by
Costello make it now more unique than any other modified MGB?
Good luck on your quest, and please let us know here how you get on.
Regards
Kelvin.
