Nice ride Jim! How is the DOT 5 working out for you? I am starting with a complete new fresh brake/clutch system and plan on doing the same... Paul

2015-04-11 12:33:41 # 25263

Comment by Jim Wulf

Definitely do it, Paul. No more paint worries, no more reservoir corrosion, and minimal moisture, if any, in the systems. Everything works just as it did with DOT 3.

I have a 1976 MG Midget 1500, the engine is being pulled today getting it ready to have the engine well & transmission tunnel painted. I want to paint the engine however I'm not sure what type of paint to purchase yet. I'm certainly open for recommendations. I can only wish to have mine LBC look like yours!! Jim, it's just breath taking...all I can come up with is WOW!!!

Comment by sean walsh

I have an MGB 1980 which has been repainted and looks just like yours except the paint can says spitfire red. I fail to see any red in the Tartan Red or my Spitfire red all I see is what we use to call back in the day, competition orange. I guess different paint manufacturers label their colors differently. I would love to have 7 MGB's each with a different color for each day of the week.

Congratulations on a beautiful B. There's one for sale at Northshore Sportscars that I think is very nice and I'm considering buying it if it's still available next spring.

Comment by Jim Wulf

Terry - I took a look and I think that looks like a pretty decent car. If you want, send me your email and I can send you a detailed list of my observations which you may find helpful in making your decision. Nice '67's don't seem to last long on the market.

Comment by Terry Gandy

Thank you, Jim. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to make a purchase until next spring/early summer. Hopefully, I will have one in time for NAMGBR 2016, but no guarantees. However, I'm curious as to what you think, so I'll IM my email, if that's ok.

Comment by Jim Wulf

David, Someone else has made the same comment about it being a New Zealand plate. The plate was already on the car when I bought it and I don't know the significance to the former owner. I like the way it looks so just left it. And "JB" just so happen to be my son's first and middle name initials.

Comment by George Furst

Exquisite car with all the beauty that has made the MGB such a classic. Even though it is a mass produced car, it has a timeless elegance where form follows function is epidimized. My only desire is the sharing of pictures of the underside of the car. This could be an inspiration for our restorations as the top side provides.

2016-05-15 21:05:20 # 34442

Comment by Jim Wulf

Thank you, George. I will be changing photos in the next week or so to reflect changes in the car including restoration of the original Tecalemit oil filter assembly, shifting of the coil to the original position on the engine mount bracket, realignment of the hood and grill, etc. I will add a shot of the undercarriage as well.

Thank you so much for the photo of the undercarriage! That is so impressive. Hate to ask for more but I would love see a few detailed photos of the rear differential area, and a few photos from directly underneath. Your car is better than off the production line. Thank you for sharing.

Comment by Gus Dielens

Jim, This is by far the best paint job I have personally ever seen! Just took my 1975, 50th. Anniversary to British European Auto, www.BritishcarLA.com for some work needed and could not believe my eyes with all the different British made cars they have for sale, as well as repairing, like the Lotus, but did not see a car close to your car with the paint job you have. Would love to know how long it took to get it like that? Almost belongs behind the museum ropes!

Comment by Chris Walker

Hi Jim, the "B" looks lovely, nice work. I recently acquired a 69 B with 20,000 miles, in great running shape but needs a ton of enjoyable TLC.can't figure out if it is Signal Red or Tartan Red.Question: did you get your seat covers from Moss are are they leather or vinyl?cheerschris w

2019-11-21 17:56:49 # 60134

Comment by Jim Wulf

Chris, The seat covers are leather and came from The Little British Car Company. From what I've observed, Signal Red is a little "brighter", with a bit of an orange hue, as opposed to Tartan Red. Both look great on a B, IMOH. Good luck with your "B"!

2019-11-22 10:02:13 # 60136

Comment by Chris Walker

Thanks Jim, Tartan red it is. Regarding seat covers, going to chat with my local car upholstery guys first but will probably buy a set of black with red piping from either Little British or Moss. My dilemma is the 1969 was the first year that came with headrests and they are downright ugly blobs and of course a tonneau cover with two big lumps looks all wrong. So do I say to hell with the headrests and throw them in the boot, or will the purists beat me up. What say you guys out there?

2019-11-30 19:34:07 # 60244

Comment by Paul Murray

Nice....Could be a cousin to mine with close production numbers, however, my last six is 108790 which should make yours earlier by 457 units, but BMIHT said mine was built on 12/20-21/1956 (maybe they have the build date wrong) and yours 12/21/1956. I also have an engine number earlier than yours 63782 by 542 units. I wonder how many they made on 12/21/1956?

Great looking car. I'm working on a 1969 B and found your photos invaluable. Let me know if you have more history photos to share. I appreciate the effort you put into this, and your car photos keep me going, especially when I find more rust ot dings.
