On one point I’ll respectfully disagree with Nick. The later cars (74-76) are great too as the smog stuff is easily removed and most have already done so.

Have never owned a “B” but this guy has one listed that seems interesting for the $. And not terribly far away from us N. Georgians...

If we weren’t planning to move in the spring, I’d be all over this:

That little MGB does look great. It's got the chrome bumpers instead of the horrible later rubber units, the minilites, and just all around looks fantastic.
And he's got those two older cars coming up for sale if they aren't already.

I need to make a lot more money...
