    Re: can anyone help me?

    welcome to the forum , you will be amazed at what people have stored away and I'm sure you will be getting a few offers too. The MGB engine is just a B series lump so you can find them on ebay occasionally too. Gauges are often old triumph spitfire or MGB ones but you can fit anything that takes your fancy - dont forget the sender units to match though. Many owners go for the mountney type wheel which will have a boss with six small nuts and bolts onto which the wheel bolts so again you will be able to find all sorts to fit. GOod luck - keep us posted with pics of your project - and dont forget to join the club and get access to old tech tips, pitstop magazine and build manuals

      Morning, Ebay is your best bet, I've bought everything I was after from Ebay apart from some paint, the engines are on there regular as clock work, I saw a decent looking engine go for just £63.00 last week ( No guarantee though !) also plenty of gear boxes, 4 and 4 + overdrive £20.00 -- £150.00.

        Hi

        Have a look at this, it is a 'make offer' item. Bonnet, steering wheel.

                Engine now removed so you can have first refusal. I'm after £100 for the complete engine with gearbox and Marlin gearbox mount. Only thing missing is the air filters and points / condenser ! Haven't had it running but no reason to suspect any problems with it. Where in UK are you as might possibly be able to deliver if not too far away.
