I am positive that the MGB GT V8 that won the Concours Class at MG 98 in Hagerstown, MD was a factory MGB GT V8. It was all original and driven to Hagerstown from Oklahoma. I am not positive of the y

Nope. As I understand the history, several were brought here for some sort of testing and teasing of the common folk and all were supposed to have gone back. I have seen 3 or 4 factory cars in the US

In the Netherlands there is a great looking LHD factory spec white V8. It has a USA dash and has been imported to the Netherlands from Sweden, where all MGB's were delivered with USA spec. (I'dont' k
