That's cool... but I think your other video is more interesting. Tell us about this one:

This is the first time my son has driven the MG.  Scott has known the car all his life.
Up until a year and a half ago, the car sat in a garage for 20 years. The body work was all finished, it was just a rolling shell.
One day i woke up and thought  ( with a big nudge from Scott ) it's time to put her back together. A new engine,gearbox, every part of the brakes and suspension,  including nuts bolts and washers  was completely replaced. Here's a quick spec list for anyone interested:
3.5 rover vitesse engine (190 bhp from factory )
Weber 500 carb, edelbrock performer manifold
Megajolt with ford edis8 and twin coil packs ( very good ,3d mapable)
RV8 manifolds through the inner wings, single box s /s exhaust.
LT77 gearbox
Gaz shocks front and rear with parabolic rear springs
standard v8 brakes and discs, EBC greensuff pads
Full leather interior with burr dashboard
Minilite wheels 185/60/14 tyres
And last but not least a bucket full of ££££££

It's great to hear that you son is interested in the car too.   Family project success!
