Morning all,

This will be a heavy old bu**er to move (I owned an old roller once, powered by a Ford 1172cc engine), but would make for great yard art. When it was put together is anyone's guess - clearly parts of an ancient Morris-Commercial lorry are in there, as is a much later 1800cc B-Series engine that most likely replaced an earlier motor (a hot-rod roller? Smile).

Anyone tempted? if it were closer, and a bit cheaper ...

That's what an MGB really looks like to the non-MGB fraternity. Mr. Green
