It's a 1975 MGB, which has been fully converted to an RV8.
Must have been a tremendous job to do. Looks as a genuine one, but then LHD.
And that sound!
BTW I've found two original GT V8's for sale overhere.
One is asking EURO 10,500.00 - = US$ 13,125.00 pictures show a decent blue
one with original wheels. Engine bay looks very original as well.
Is this a worthy deal?
Cheers,
Hans
