Pardon my ignorance, what is an MGB?

MGB was a tiny car (not too dissimilar to the pic in post #3). There was quite a period where they (Brits) were exporting real crap into our market.

My wife had one in the early 1970's and the gas tank sprung a leak - into the trunk. She got out just before the little pile of junk burst into flames (and yes, she'd just lit a smoke -- we did that sort of thing back then!)

They don't seem to age well. In my opinion, scary.

An MGB, child, was the ultimate British 2 seater fun sports car of the 50's through the 70s
