Somewhere along the way, BB had her SU's replaced by a Weber carb. The temperature at which BB would start was slowly getting higher and higher, so I plunged into a rebuild. The details and pictures are here https://theoldmanandthemgb.blogspot.com/

In order to unload the electrical system and see farther, I upgraded headlights, tail lights, and blinkers to LED. I used parts from Moss and was happy with the results. Pics and description, along with some meanderings about engine efficiency are at:

Voltmeter Installation In A '67 MGB

I have experience with MG electrical systems and so, felt much better having a voltmeter installed. It's a good thing I did! I had installed the cheapest available dynamo and one day saw the voltmeter sink to zero! The blog post will show how I learned what a field coil is and repaired everything. Btw, there was not a sausage in the dynamo!

Dashboard Repainting Project

After reading a Moss Motors catalog, I realized how aged my dash was. I also realized how much time one spends looking at that dash. So I decided on a repaint. The story is illustrated here:

It is always fun to be the only person in a British roadster, which style arguably started this sport!
