So here's the long-awaited new project thread.
Yep, it's an MGB from Alabama but with a Connecticut window sticker. It's a semi-decent tub though some welding will be required. I may have found a better tub in Texas and am kicking around a road trip to pick up that one but that's still in the cogitating stage. There's some rust which is why I'm hesitant to just dive right in though I may just do that.
(sorry about the finger in the sky pic)

Of course, this wouldn't be a BS project or a Dan project if I just did a restoration so here are the parts waiting to go in:
LE5 Ecotec (2.4L, 173 HP) from a Solstice

And an Aisin AR5 5 speed

So this is the starting point. Lots between here and there.
