Gosh, a few hours in that.
Classic look, clean engine bay, purposeful stance with a nice wheelarch gap, vintage interior.
Excellent.
And an unusual colour.

Well done!

Alamo Beige paint (an MG factory color from 1959-1962).

Beautiful auto and excellent choice of power plant.  Kinda partial to the 5.0L Ford engines:-)  The TKO should take any abuse that the owner will throw at it.  The paint choice and enhancements are very tasteful.  Great Job!   Maybe a trip back east to one of our V8 Meetings?

What a great car, I've come back to look at it a few times already.  Nice choice of color, too.
