I'm not in Melbourne but play with RV8s.

Which posts, they are all pretty vanilla?

[TarmacRV8]

Ok great, what rv8's do you have?
Oh getting recomendations for a good suit belt etc, car people seem to have a broader knowledge of quality to tap into👍

Just saying hello with my new BGT project...









1973 BGT in Black Tulip with the impossible to replace Ochre interior, initial plan is to do a 'light touch' tart-up and use it for a while before looking at a more extensive restoration. All the usual rust in all the usual places so a good project on which to learn to weld

[TarmacRV8]

Keep it unique and purple, resist the change to the common colours, it's such a 70's color and looks the part 👍

Don't worry, I love the combination of the Black Tulip with the Rostyle wheels, that will be staying in all its 1970's loveliness. I may go with a tan interior given the difficulty getting Ochra seat covers but otherwise I'll keep it stock.

[TarmacRV8]

Yeah Ive always liked the color too, with tan and rostyles and maybe a v8 👍whats that other car in the cnr? A mclaren ?

Cheers, not a fan of major modifications so I'll be keeping the 4 pot in the MG, I like my classics to feel like they would when new, of their era if you like.

Yes, the MG shares garage space with my 570s McLaren, another reason I don't feel the need for extra speed in the MG

[TarmacRV8]

Fair enough you've got the best of both worlds there. Ive got an all original time warp one owner from new ( dad bought it , still in his name for now) falcon gt from 1970 that I would never change from factory.

Cant afford a mclaren yet so I souped up the rv8.

The V6 could well be the performance bargain of the year.

1.8 turbo good donor for a tF.

Diesel good family run about.

Since cleaning the plug to the fuel pump mine has been just fine (typical BL) but I have ordered a filter set and pump just in case it's the inter part of the mittent.

Hello all. Back in the MG fold after 16 years. I picked this up on Saturday from CCH in Hull. And I’m very pleased with it!

Thanks! I will look up the show and see if I can get across.

Very similar to the surveyors car, though it's a V8 and very much not a project. Previous owner spent a fortune!



Promised myself one years ago - finally decided.to do it. Absolutely cracking machine!

A few tasteful tweaks so far, moto-lita wheel, locking fuel.cap & nice.wooden knob to go with the wheel..

Tempted by electronic ignition - both for.ease but also the immobiliser capability...
