Hi hope you’re well , I don’t suppose you’re going to any meets at the British Motor Museum this month as there’s quite a few this month, if so I look to the video if not I hope you still enjoy MGB-ing and continue to produce fun and interesting videos, thanks

Thanks for your comment. No events planned for Gaydon at the moment,. but I'll priobably do something before the end of the year on the museum. Don't know if you saw our video on the MG Centenary - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYbYgpd_brhpgcU

Post war America's favorite racing car was the 1932 Ford Roadster. The Deuce. Like the MGBs, the 1932 Fords were lightweight and plentiful. Dual carburetors and an overhead valve inline 4 powered the MGB's while the Deuce was powered by the "Milestone" Flathead V8. A favorite get-a-way car of outlaws, Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker. Over time, the plentiful Fords became scarce. Hot Rodders of the 1950's and 60's sought out the few remaining deuces. Thanks to their timeless styling, reproduction bodies of the 1932 "Deuce" Fords became available. The similarity to England's MGB is clear. .

Very nice, would love to have seen/got information on the 4 cylinder cars/class as well :)

Thanks for your comment - fair point - it is quite difficult to get time with people on a race day. Maybe contact the BCV8 team for more info? www.bcv8.com

I'm a big fan of modified MGBs, (thinkin' my custom chassis/suspension, 5.7L SBC, 400+hp, MGB, street car, could hang with these race cars pretty easily). Thanks. (had a great time at a MGOC event/show last weekend, nice cars/people)

Thanks for your comment. Like the sound of your modified MGB - if you have a few pics/videos, I'm putting together some short viewers cars videos and it would be great to include yours... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKqngZuJeMmji6s Also, which MGOC show were you at?

[@mgbchuck6527]

The MGOC event was in Greenbrae, Ca. (Marin co.)

Why do people preface every answer with “ so” Drives me mad

[@ClassicMGB]

Thanks for your comment - yes, on my "professional" video jobs, people do it as well and it can be really difficult to edit out. I think it's because it gives people a little time to think - a bit like an "Ummm" or an "Errr" ...
