Keith,
MG, The A B & C, by Chris Harvey has a full page picture in color
of car #31 which was 7 DBL wearing the long nose. The caption is :-
Plate 16 facing page
Alan Hutcheson and Paddy Hopkirk take the long-nosed MGB registered 7 DBL to
twelfth place at Le Mans in '63 despite having spent eighty five minutes
stuck in a sandbank at the end of the Mulsanne Straight.
This book, from page 90 to page 127, has some pictures and dialogue on
racing the MG A's, B's & C's
Regards,
Scotty,
