  • I hate to say this, but i much prefer the colour of your mg to ours, ours is that blaze red orange

  • @sootyferrari65 Hi – Yes a lot of people like the colour I have chosen, I have had the car re-sprayed and the colour is not a true MG Green. It’s called British Leyland Green. It’s coming alaong now. Just put on all the lights to the body.

  • Damn, that's a tight fit there mate.

  • Hi Brandon.

    Yes to walk past the eides of the car I have to walk sideways like a Crab. I have not been able to move the Mg for over a year. (no engine) Now I have rebuilt the Engine / Gearbox, hpoe within the next 3 weeks will start the MG up. Fingers crossed ?

  • Hi Terry, have you been doing most of your work on you drveway, reason i ask my garage is a little wider than yours ,not much, im picking up a coupe tonight to restore,

    but i have my doubts now whether i have enough room to work....cheers...paul

  • thanks for the reply Terry no ive not put the car on youtube yet hoping to get the car done for the summer, i was between red and green both really nice.

  • Hi ringostar19 Got the car back now from the paint shop, looks beautiful. 2 years of hard graft has now paid off. Will soon have to upload another Video Blog soon. Is your car on you tube? if not would like to see it, red a nice colour that you have chosen. I have stuck with Green, but the true name for the colour I have chosen for my car is Leyland Dark Green. Its in between Racing Green & Mallard Green.

    Good luck.

    Terry.

  • just started my restoration on a 1972 roadster its complety striped getting painted next month in red
