/begin ruffling.... The Mk 2 '67's are generally conisdered the 'best' - 4-synchro and metal dash. But I like the cars with pull handles the best. /end ruffling == Dan The Garden State '76 MGB Tourer

I was always under the impression that the 4 syncro started in 68 and it required a larger transmission tunnel (hump). I also understood that only the '68 Canadian spec car (and 68 to 76 or so Europe

Hmmmm... well that's interesting and good news. So th late 67 came with metal dash and had backup lights. I have a 68-74 BMH body shell that I'm planning on putting a metal dash into. I was wondering

Jeez, what does ANY of this have to do with engine color? Please edit your subject line! Only the very last of the 67's where Mk2's I they had the abingdon pillow and were mostly 68's titled as 67's.

Ahhhh......I went to respray the engine on the MGA with Moss engine paint. And it comes out orange, not the proper red. Checked with my local Moss distributor, who told me that Moss seems to be under

I just had my MGA engine rebuilt, and it was sprayed with Moss 'Red', which is more of a maroon. Definitely not orange. I also bought some of the Moss paint, (220-540) and it is the same color (red/m

There are some people over here who would like to know which "Moss Distributor" led you to the following belief: be under the impression that later MGs (after the T series) had their engines painted

Moss has sourced this paint from the same company for lo these many years and as the flurry of e-mails verifies it should be the correct deep Maroon color. The T series paint is a brighter Red color.

I don't know, I would take the (pre-68) metal dash, large instruments and a glovebox over the all-synchro trans any day. But I managed to get my cake and eat it too by retrofitting an all-synchro OD

That's pretty funny. I have no doubt they were not that careful with the shade or hue (what is the difference?) when they painted these things. I wonder how well they cleaned out the paint cups if th
