Guys--
Just wanted to point out the fact that the MGB front suspension is not a bad thing if properly set up. In fact, we had fastest time of day at cobrafest 2001 with our 289-FIA using the non-upgraded MGB suspension and Dodge Aspen brakes provided with the original pallet kit.
On the other hand, I don't think that I would touch this particular car at any price given its history.
