Ryan buys the cheapest MGBGT in the country. But will it drive?

This MGB GT was last started two years ago. Ryan has acquired it for £450. Will it start and drive, so we can rag it round the yard?

It's kinda hard to imagine this MG once left Abingdon as a brand new car, to tickle the fancy of its new owner in a Leyland showroom. Lets hope she goes onto survive. I reckon the MGB GT on wire wheels in white is a lovely looking package - white suited the GT very well.

Woohoo CCC drops another video. Yes, she's a bit rough round the edges, but still a bargain for £450, braided hoses and all.

[@crap_car]

Ryan is thinking about turning into a track day car.

[@poppydogz]

That was a right bargain to be honest, all original, well done..

[@adriancallen2890]

GOOD TO SEE ANOTHER GREAT BRITISH SPORTS CAR BEING SAVED, ANYTHING CAN BE PUT WRITE, IF NOT FOR MONEY GAIN, BUT THE FUN AND REWARD OF GETTING HER GOING AGAIN, FATHER AND SON WORKING TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL IS PRICELESS. GOOD LUCK. ADRIAN

Great intro, cool looking mg ,great video

*A quick wash and some fresh chicken wire in the sills and it'll be back on the road*

[@crap_car]

The plan is to turn it into a track car. So expect updates as it progresses.

[@sinorman231]

free tax and no MOT bargain,,,

[@davidlang3625]

Had my fair share of stuck clutches. A mechanically more sympathetic trick that sometimes works is to leave the engine running for a while; the heat from the engine will often loosen off the clutch plate

[@crap_car]

Good tip. Ryan did try that later off camera but had no luck.

[@davidlang3625]

Oh dear. Ended up in a load of extra work then?

[@crap_car]

Not extra as such. He was planning on removing the engine anyway. He was just unable to test the engine and box properly before he removed it.

[@RobReynolds]

Just browsing Facebook marketplace whilst watching this video and seen the car up for sale, breaking for posts 😂

[@crap_car]

Talking to Ryan tonight and he's turning it into an autocross car. He's selling off the parts he won't be using.

[@sinorman231]

just dropped on channel love it,, wash and a polish be good to go,,,,,

[@seavee2000]

Such a great intro, and top music. And a crap MGB , what's not to like?

[@crap_car]

I'm a big Rockford Files fan. I couldn't resist.

[@Ian-ev5tg]

That’s a Yorkshire accent if I ever heard one. From Barnsley myself. Where are you from?

[@crap_car]

Ey up. We are all around the Wakefield area.
