If I'm not mistaken, all tach drives were 3 main engines. In fact , I think
some of the 3 mains actually got the later electric tach. Clausager's
"Original MGB" would tell you for sure.
In regards the body shell, it sounds about right for the area and year. I'd
try to save it. It is an early car. Worth saving. But thats me...a sucker
for a wounded dog.
