Richard & Jean Culmer's MG B Roadster
This is
Richard and Jean Culmer's MG B roadster. It was a project car built in
2010 by a mechanic in the MGOC workshops at Swavesey. The base car is
indeed a chrome bumper K Reg.
It had a
full bare metal respray and then received a new heart - a 2.9 litre 24
valve V6 Ford Cosworth engine - plus other uprated components. The
engine is mated with a Ford 5 speed gearbox.
Bill
Burton bought the car in 2011, and we bought it from Bill in 2020. The
car is happiest cruising at around 70mph; it's not so keen on pottering
around on little country lanes. It has plenty of get up and go if
required!
