Spotted at work last night. Front had an MG badge and it was a two door hatch thing. Really wide rear tires. Sorry for the only bad pic. The owner showed up but wasnt really friendly.

I just looked that up.. WHY DID HE DO THAT TO IT???

I thought it was newer (like an 05) cant believe it was a classic

Sounded like a huge V8 was dropped in too

Someone who was a fan of corvette summer could only get their hands on a MG.

A fairly easy swap is the Buick/Rover 3.5 liter aluminum block V8...neat little engine that weighs 50 lbs LESS than the stock cast iron 4 cylinder. A lot of other small block V8s have been done as well, but the Buick/Rover is so tidy.
