I built one in '65 -- Ford Anglia engine + box. Ford Rally brakes,
skiiny tires (all they had in those days!!)
Really nice handling, BUT...
The fiberglass is the earliest "shot" type and is quite thin and
breaks where the hood and door hinges fit. And the intake scoop is
prone to fracturing at the curved portions.
Liked to over heat occasionally but that shouldn't be a problem with
the MGB running gear.
BTDT...
But it goes where you point it...

alive !!
