Sam,I had a green 1966 when I was in college. It was a wonderful car. Took me to Mexico via Colorado the summer before my senior year. a 7,000 mile trip to see my cousins in Irapuato and San Luis Potosi.Your MGB look a bit tighter than mine ever was. This car is going to make someone very happy.The best to you and thanks for keeping your red one going strong.Carlos
