MGB Register Forum

I am eventually starting to put my BGT back together and before fitting the doors I have noticed the driver and passenger door top hinges are quite stiff to move and the lower ones have some up and down play in them. I seem to remember being told the up and lower hinges are different but both look t...

Sorry folks - these tickets have now gone.

I have a voucher for two tickets to the MGB Register Spring Run to Sudeley Castle Gloucestershire for this Sunday 12th April. I am unable to attend owing to a knee injury that prevents me driving my MGB so I am offering them to any MGCC member who can collect the voucher from Oliver's Battery Winche...

I had hoped a new dizzy would be under the Christmas tree, but grand daughter told me that I had been a bit naughty and used some rude words when I was fixing my MGB so no new dizzy! I will be...

Thanks David for the info, I have heard that the electronics coming out of China recently are pretty rubbish, and that some major EU car makers are changing suppliers back to Europe or the USA. I am going to have a look a the alternatives including Aldon, I don't need the sophisticated set up 123 pr...

I suppose the US spec cars could use their trunks to put their elephants in!!! I took just about everything I could think of to the Cornish weekend, and only used a very small screwdriver and pliers to fix my wife's glasses and a spanner to tighten the fan belt in 828 miles, (it was the longest dist...
