Interesting project - I feel like the seller's comments 'easy fix' might be a tad optimistic regarding a knackered engine though.

An easy fix if you have a spare redtop lying around. Somebody trying to get rid of a problem and make some money in the process

my old car i bought it off retro rides

doesn’t have an lsd it’s a welded mgb back axel

and if that engine is rattling it’s done

also if that super charger is working properly i’ll eat my hat

the guy i sold it to removed it after the back end stepped out and he needed new underwear lol
