1972 MGB Roadster with a Nissan CA18DET engine, tastefully modified body and interior, highly upgraded suspension and drive train! This is truly a one of a kind car! It has never been raced but was built to be a fun, exciting street car. It was built to be DRIVEN! It cruises nicely at 75 mph and will get around 30mpg doing so! It makes a solid 200rwp at 12psi of boost with a very conservative tune. It is super quick and a blast to drive!
