Here's a picture of my 1956 Magnette, purchased nearly 2 years ago and subject to considerable underbody attention, a new interior, and a rebuild of the engine and gearbox. The engine is an 1860 cc MGB B Series lump now giving 120 BHP and driving through an MGB 4 synchro overdrive box with a MGB 3.9 diff. I've upgraded the front brakes to discs, and it runs TR6 wide wheels.   |

Very nice. Great colour and the wheels really set it off

Sorry for the late response. To answer a couple of questions - the clock is original and it works! Sorry - no video. It does surprise people, particularly when I overtake modern cars!
Currently giving the rear suspension an overhaul, to be followed by the front suspension.
