What we have here today is not true barn find but instead, a shed find and I own the shed!!! I've been rebuilding MGs for about 20 years now and have also collected a couple other nice vintage cars. But it is time to let this hobby go and move on to my retirement life. So, just bear with me and I'll try to describe all the cars in this listing. This is an "ALL FOR ONE PRICE" deal. If they don't all sell in one group, I will consider offers on individual cars or parts, but only after this auction runs its full course. 1st-- is the '80 MGB LE. It is a rust free body with the engine removed, due to the fact that it was locked up when I bought the car and the interior has been removed for a total resto. All parts to make this a whole car are included. It has a clear TN title. 2nd--'80 MGB, white with black interior, wire wheels. hardtop, and air conditioning installed. It has a clear MS title. 3rd--'80 MGB, white with black interior, complete car. It has a Bill of Sale from TX. 4th--A "FAKE" '80 MGB LE with a MA title. This car caught on fire and burnt out the interior and the engine compartment. I purchased it because from the trunk back the fire did not burn, the LE wheels and tires were untouched, and the lights and bumpers on both ends were still intact. 5th--'79 MGB, white with poorly patched rust on the rocker panels. I drove this car into the shed and it has a clear AR title. 6th--'78 MGB, covered in primer over a blue paint, no rust, no engine, no interior, with small damage to the radiator support. It has a clear TN title. 7th--'78 MGB, red with no rust, no engine, no interior, and no title. 8th--''77 MGB, red with oil leak around the oil filter hose. Complete car brown interior, and it ran when I bought it with no rust. Clear TX title. 9th--'76 MGB, purple, no interior, unknown about engine, so may be only good for parts. Clear VA title. 10th--'77 MG MIDGET, orange no rust, but engine has a rod knocking. Clear TX title. 11th--'73 MG MIDGET, piece of crap, wire wheels, good for parts only. Clear FL title 12th--'71 MGB GT, black primer over robin egg blue color. Rust only in drivers floorboard, partial interior, carbs removed but included. Clear AR title. 1985 Corvette, fire engine red, with red interior. Was replacing carpet with brand new mass black when I hurt my back. 350 hp TPI engine with 7 speed tranny. Previous owner said overdrive tranny was bad, but while replacing interior, I found a bad wire to overdrive. I have an extra overdrive tranny included in case the wiring is not the problem. And YES, the Nintendo dash works as advertised. I drove this car home from southern Tx. Some spare parts including extra set of wheels and tires. Clear TX title. 1980 Porsche 924, silver with partial interior. Rod knocking in engine although I drove car onto trailer when picked up. No title, no rust. 1981 DELOREAN, the DOMINOS PIZZA car, orange white and blue. No damage, this car was bought by the original owner of Dominos in 1981, driven out of the showroom to a paint shop, then used as advertising gimmick by delivering several pizzas. The car was then put into the owners museum until he went bankrupt. I picked up this car in Indiana and drove it home. Automatic with a gas flap hood. The car is not running due to fuel injector problem. 8200 total miles and a ton of spare parts go with the car, including a spare engine, extra wheels, etc. As for spare parts for all those MGs, there are enough to fill up a large U-Haul truck. Most all those boxes that line the walls of my shed are full of extra parts. Weber carbs, a dozen or so extra fuel pumps, wheels, tires, brakes, electrics, a couple overdrive trannys, bumpers, two extra hardtops, seats, gauges, and the list goes on and on. If someone is looking for something for an MG, I have 99% of the parts in my inventory. One price gets everything. By now, you have probably noticed a pattern--------no rust, no rust, no rust---------and most all these vehicles are Southern cars. Yes, I have bought rusted cars, but only for the parts they contained. I would strip them out and the body would be regulated to the recycle folks. At one time I had 24 MGs in my stable, but I just can't continue at this pace. I need to slow down. Look at the pictures, and if you have any questions, email me or give me a call (nine oh one, four nine four, four three three eight).
