In the British Car Classified section of the Valley British Auto Club
Newsletter that arrived in my mailbox today.
1967 MGB All apart, garaged for 10+ years. Wheels on body, rest in
boxes. Restorable. Don't think husband is ever going to get around to
it! $500/OBO. Call Dennis or Lindsey Martin 559-222-3014
The car is probably in the central California area and so relatively
rust free.
They are out there, you just have to keep looking.
Kelvin.

Yeah, if you can find one. I have an automated eBay search for chrome
bumper
MGB body shells, and only one has come up in the last year. I don't
think it
was a Mk. I either. My impression is that the supply of 62-67 MGBs is
drying
up -- you occasionally find restored examples for sale, but "cheap
drivers"
are non-existant, and viable projects are extremely rare. Now and then a
hideous rust pig is offered at a ridiculous price.
