I had a MG-B! dang it now i forget the year! it was a 70 something with crome bumpers it said British leland on the side. It was a junker and I always wanted to fix it up but could NOT find parts for it! :(

I had a '65 with the knock-off wheel hubs and the original copper headed hammer, and a '68. When I needed parts, I always had the best luck scouring the junk yards. I think it was the '73 model year that had to comply with the US bumper requirements, and it really screwed up the car.

1974: the year of the "front porch/rear porch" bumbers.
