Okay, It's not an MG but there is no Triumph category so I put it in the next best thing.
MG and Triumph were both made by British Leyland for the last years of production anyway.

I bought this car in 1999 when I was 16. I have spent almost 3 years restoring it.

Hey I'm thinking about buying one of these. Do you know what the stock horsepower is? Also, are they very easy to fix/work on/build up? Thanks, and nice car.

Hi Frank, Got to say youve done a fine job restoring her, excellent example. Dont see many in the UK now. Keep up the good work & let me know if you up-date your page. Shirley

I've asked for them to add a Triumph Catagory. I won't add my 63 Spitfire, unless they start the new catagory.
