Bob,

I have a set of old school 15 X 7 Youngblood race wheels. Came off an MGB race car.

Also have a complete set of 2" SU, yes 2" SU, carbs complete with manifold for an MGB and a set of 1 3/4" carbs without manifold.

Bingo Dave....

Yes they are some of the stuff from Dean's garage. You must have a great memory.

And the whole right hand drive MGB race car is still there too. Pam would be thrilled if you were to want it back.

Bob,

I have 4 of the 1 3/4 SU carbs...two front two rear. Most likely will need to be rebuilt.

$150 per pair, shipping included down to you.

The wheels were bought by my friend Ross up in Minnnnnnnnnesota. He wants $800 for the four of them.

I have two sets of wheels that are 14x7. I will head out to the barn in a little bit, take measurements and pictures and get back to you if you are interested.

Is the right hand drive MGB available? What shape? Old car of Dave's?

Rob, the Dean Manion car is my very first('63) MGB, bought new. Street driven, then raced, sold, repurchased, brought up to contemporary SCCA specs in the early '90s. Was on pole in Eprod at 1996 SCCA runoffs at Mid-Ohio. Sold to Manion in 1997. Raced some by Dean, then locked away. Dean passed in 2015(?). Owner now(Dean's ex?) a little proud of the car although it's for sale. Condition reported as a bit rough but I have not seen it. The man who has my most recent SCCA car was interested but not at the asking price.

Robby,

Yes the right hand MGB is still for sale.

Dave may have to chime in here as I don't know much about the car. I THINK Dave built it and Dean Manion from Kansas City bought and raced the car.

It is not in very good shape having been raced hard and put away wet. But I think it is all there.

I've inquired about the price and can maybe even come up with some photos in a few days.

I've got NO connection with the car. Dean has passed away and his ex wife is stuck with selling off his stuff. Several of us are helping her.

Bob,

Just got back from the barn. This is what I have:

1 set (4 wheels with old tires mounted) 14x6 (they are the ones n the left side of the picture) $800
1 set (4 wheels, 2 with old tires mounted) 14x6 1/2 (right side of picture, gold centers) $800
1 18GH block that is serviceable, the head of the locking screw for the distributor gear hold down had to be drilled out and the end of the screw needs to be removed (see picture) $200

Shipping is not included in the prices. Let me know if you are interest in anything.

Jim
