    Wow! looks great jozi, a lot of elbow grease showing there :)
    Have you restored it yourself, or did you buy it in that condition? The interior alone is fantastic, the engine bay is pristine, and those wheels.....

    I'll be sure to tell him! :confused::p

    It was bought as you see it there, well-loved by a serial MG owner and restorer and my Dad has made sure it went to a good home. It's actually a combination of two cars, one donor. He very rarely if ever takes it out in any sort of cloudy conditions just in case he gets caught in the rain. And if there is any sort of drizzle, he'll park her up in the garage, wipe it down with a towel, open all the doors/boot/bonnet and stick on the radiator in the garage.

    Cheers! He bought it I'd say 3 or 4 years ago, and he's only done 2000 miles in it, the longest trip was just last week from Dublin to Cavan and back.

    We're just waiting now so we can knock the single car garage and make it a double, and I want to put a Triumph GT6 in there beside the C :o

    Friend of mine has a C GT, thatI think you saw before. Well he got a straight through stainless steel exhaust for it today. Lord almight the sound just isn't funny.

    Edit: It's 69 as well.

    AFAIK there were only a 1000 of each made. And I would check this out but I'm wrecked, so open to correction, lol.
