Steve, $4-5000 will buy you a nice B where I live, and this is a good
time of year to buy as there are less shoppers now in North America now
due to weather.
As far as what year, that is very subjective. I like chrome bumpers
best. Those are pre-75. (74.5 I guess). But if you want to put a V8
in it, then '77->'80 is easier for that. More importantly is probably
what your skills are. If you work in a body shop then rust might worry
you less than me. I am pretty good with mechanicals, but haven't tried
my hand at body work yet.
I forwarded your question to the mgs mailing list as well. It is a
great source of information and they will be able to answer your
question better than I. I have only had one B, some of them have had
multiple and owned their cars since they were new off the lot. You can
subscribe to the list at:

I'm looking to buy an MG in the summer and looking to pay around
4-5,000 dollars. What years are good for that kind of money, and which
ones would you suggest buying for that price range?
