Memory-dead alternator-
|
MGB-figured that.I girl a friend-called me late one night~1980.Her MGB had just "STOPPED" on the road-battery dead-no lights,no horn-nothing.Knowing it was a Brit beast I hauled a spare battery 80 miles out to her.I managed to stuff it in-sorta,it was from my old Cuda- and told her to follow me closely and use my headlights to see by.I figured the battery had enough juice for ignition for 80 miles.It did,and she got a rebuilt alternator the next day!!
You can most certainly update the electrics with better parts now.I don't think anyone makes electrical stuff of that"quality" anymore.Anything that fits will be a big improvement!!Charlie PS Fun cars though!!I would still buy a TR6(maybe not a TR7,but certainly a TR8) if I came across one now-cheap-very cheap!!Same goes for those Jenson Healys.All that Brit stuff was fun.
