My son (Jonathan) and I own two MGs- a 1960 MGA, and a 1977 MGB. We are currently restoring and rebuilding the MGB with a completely rebuilt engine, new transmission, and a 5-speed overdrive. More to come soon..

It has been a long bumpy ride getting to this place but I would have not wanted to change much of it. I know I am not the first person to restore a vehicle and say this but; this is taking a lot longer and at a much higher cost than I originally expected.
