My father is very close to finishing what would be an "original" looking MGA 1500 with V8 that is as new. It looks very impressive and will probably put it in a few magazines.

Any chance of posting some pics? There's a great before, during, and after post here on PH in the classic cars forum where I'm sure the chaps would love to see a V8 MGA.

btw - what V8 block has your father gone for? You have some cracking V8 motors in Oz.

Agree the interior is totally out of keeping with what an MGA is all about. I wonder if those wires will handle the power?

What's more concerning is that the vendor's stating "Offered at less than a third of its build cost" with an asking pirice of £49K? If true, then someone has been taken for a serious financial ride @ £147,000!
