What company manufactured Cosmic Rims in the 70/80s.. ?
Hi, Just managed to track down and buy a set of Cosmic Mk 4s that I bought in '81 for my first 'bgt. All I know about them is a) they are (brushed ?) aluminum and b) I have never seen another set like them.. and they are not a typical Cosmic. I bought them through a MG supplier in Toronto, Canada wh...

Replacing rear spring hangers
'72 'bgt
Are there any YT Vids or good instructions on how to replace a spring hanger. I have the parts coming but I cannot seem to find anything on the 'inet on actually doing it.
Anyone have any links ?
Thanks

Re: Anyone have an email addy for the person that maintains the MGB database ?
Paul, I own a car that there was a very small volume of them made.. I am curious how many actually survived and are registered. Is this possible ? Thanks Ian. Hi Ian, It's not a searchable database I'm afraid. When a car is registered with us the Registrar will either issue a new number if the car h...

Anyone have an email addy for the person that maintains the MGB database ?
After I bought my last MG, I registered the serial number.
Is there anyway I can search this data base or is there a person I can query ?
Thanks, ian

Re: Looking for advertising - 1972 'bgt
I now assume BMC did nor produce any advertising for the uk/continental spec 'bgt in 1972.
Too funny.

Looking for advertising - 1972 'bgt
Folks,
Trying to find an advert that looks like my car .
In search of advertising for a Continental spec MGB GT (LHD). Seller must be willing to ship it to Canada. I would also be happy with a RHD model.
Thanks
Ian.

Re: So what did I actually buy ?
Ian, Yes, both coasts were hammered but in the East, it has happened before and the West, they were warned.. not putting monies into infrastructure does that.. but that is politics. I am in Nova Scotia, the opposite coats but we seem to swap a lot of Profs back and forth.. we have 10 universities he...

Re: So what did I actually buy ?
Ian, My '71 had smog control on it.. key word being had.. I don't remember this one having it.., I should have looked before I stored it. I am quite tickled pink over this car.. and more so when I find out what condition the shell is actually in. I am putting it on a rotisserie and having it vapour ...
