Bit of a Chop Shop moment....

[Upatdawn]

Having had a mate with a MGC roadster many years ago but unlikely to ever having MGC type funds, would a MGB GT be choppable into a C lookalike with suitable bonnet and mig welder/angle grinder JUST for the hell of it?

would the roadsters have the same chassis/floor as a GT? would removing the roof result in a floppy car?...

the engine could wait till a cheap RV8 popped up somewhere

What i have found is a GT is half the price of a roadster, maybe less?

I have found some B roadsters ate a reasonable - if not concours - price, those rubber bumpers are ghastly though, do they come off easy?....lol

I have to say, judging from your posts, that you'd be best advised to leave well alone as you seem to be totally out of your depth when it comes to the hands-on practical side of car ownership . . .

well ive dropped a V6 Ford engine into a Bedford CF, but that was when everyone did it....


and i was asking

thanks for your input
