So went and looked at the '65 MGB this morning. It's too rusty to be worth saving. Outer body is good but entire rockers/structure are rusted out. Shop owner where it's being stored agreed.
Sooo...shop owner has a complete numbers matching '69 MGC-GT with factory overdrive and fabric sunroof (extremely rare). Car is on a rack inside a Conex box so I was able to look all under it...body is solid and as rust free as they come. It's complete but engine/trans are out sitting next to it. I might be dragging that one home this weekend to restore. Ugh. Too good to pass up. A C-GT's has always been my dream MG..and and MGC even more rare. Ugh again.
