I'll admit I was a little sceptical of the white paint. But now that it's all coming together, that's pretty bad ass. What's the plan with the wheels? White 5 spoke March.. would look nice. Are the fairings going back on as well ?

Lookin good man! Ill have to see it in person when im down that way for tech school. You should take a few more photos though... like a side and front shot.

I would love to be able to afford new wheels but doubt it, would like 5 spokes in black or gold. Right now is to ssee how the bronze wheels go with the pearl white with red with gold accents.

It will be a full bodied sport tourer with saddle bags and I just found a set of nonfango top case mounts as well. Seat was modified as well for 2 up, added a small ridge between me and wifes seat to keep her from sliding forward.

Looking good!!!

I can't help but think that the wheels need to be red.

The mts1200 exhaust can is going to look awesome. Red wheels....too much, thought abouf black but liking the bronze

The white looks bloody great Raux, nice work

Nice MGB too.

Looks great.
Wheel colour is a good match. Colour scheme could be a special addition oem option it looks that right. Good work.

Thanks. A few things left. Swapping goldline masters from the monster. Front calipers, clutch brake fluids, chain. New rotor bolts on the way, lost them in the move? And of course taking it to exhaust shop for custom build. But, she did start!!!

MGB is kids... original condition, no rust, 78

Looking fricken awesome! Cant wait to hear it run.... and to see photos from the first ride on it back in the states...

Realise what it reminded me of. It's a modern, sophisticated (and good looking) sports tourer harking back to the 750 Paso Limited Edition.
They should build an 1100 Evo version (or even 1200) and steal sales from the VFRs (again).
