This is long. Sorry. Here's the rub: A local business just off the interstate always seems to have their rear garage door open when I drive by. They also have an MGB siting in said doorway. I had bee

My 2 penn'orth. It would be sacrilege to cut up a 63, only slightly less so a 68. At the end of the day it all depends on what the 68 means to you. Personally I wouldn't trade my car (the year is imm

I know the body work is daunting but if you can swing the trade I would do it. You will really like the 63 better performance and vintage feel wise. I sense his plans will end up in a stalled resto d

Boy, I would hate to see anything like this done to an early pull-handle car. I think there is cutting needed to do engine swaps on the early cars, which means that any change like this is essentiall

Gang, I agree with Dan. After having done some research on a Camaro V6 conversion, the CBB would require irreversible cutting on the frame and firewall. That's why I decided against in on my '68. On

Interesting quandary. Taking the engine and tranny as a unit would certainly work, with the usual futzing about with electrics and plumbing connections. Mixing and matching Mk. I and Mk. II engines a

Well, my preaching paid off (sort of). Todd told me today that last night he convinced his wife to learn to drive a standard (something I can't convince my wife). That means he's going to do the car

I would become good friends with the guy and circle the place like a vulture until he lets you go get it :-) Carl I do think that his car will be a dead project in a year, but I hope I'm wrong. And I
