Ay, but sometimes one can find a diamond in the rough. My '74 had the floors
replaced, new fenders, a new paint job, rebuilt SU's, 73,000mi, and a bad
backfire.
The PO wanted $500, I gave him $400. He thought the timing chain was broken.
Turned
out to be bad spark plugs. The car sat in a field for two years, and needs a
little
bit of love and some rubber parts. The owner didn't have the love, and I had
the
money. So, not all $400 MGB's are junk, or risks. Of course, owning a parts
car
helps too...
