The only way I could keep my '69 MGB-GT running was by robbing parts
off my spare '69 MGB Roadster.  After a about one year, the Roadster
didn't have much of an electrical system. Lucas can't even make fuses
that work right!

If you are seriously interested in obtaining an MGB, try calling your
local British/Leyland dealer (if you can find one) and ask him how much
a new starter costs. You will be surprised. Parts (including rebuilt
ones) are not cheap.

MGB's (and most other British automobiles) are great fun to drive, the 
only problem is keeping them in a drivable condition...
