Slow ride, take it easy

In the big hunt for the right car for the electric project I decided to get a hold of one of my dads old friends, Brent. He restores MGA's so I figured there was no better person to know of "a guy" who has a car in the range I am looking for, probably sitting under a tarp or in a garage or a barn somewhere.
Turns out I was right. I received an e-mail tonight saying he knows a guy who has an MGB-GT project and that he would want to part with it.
I had looked at a GT as an option but thought it'd be a great car but probably out of my price range. It would have lots of room for batteries, both front and back and a good opportunity to have a balanced car weight wise which means that it'll handle perfectly.

This is starting to look promising.

Here are a few quick borrowed images of a GT so you can get an idea of what I'm looking at. (if you are the owner of this car, it is gorgeous and I hope you don't mind me using it as an excellent example)

Least to say if I can get my hands on a car like this I'd be a very, very happy person.
