Bought this '80 MGB LE #1

I bought this beauty from Ofc Williamson's daughter a few months back. He pasted away one year ago, and I promised to give it a good home. Had a ton over stuff repaired, still need to touch up paint, some rubber trim, and the final touch LE badging. Can't wait to meet everyone else. Take care.

I had to repair some wiring issues, but got it fixed. Thank goodness for Haynes! Still have to see Skip for some carburetor and timing issues. Think I have the cold starts under control, but it still wants to backfire under heavy acceleration. I can't wait to hop into the saddle again.
