1 April, 2015

The Goodwood 73rd Members Meeting, held on March 21–22, was a spectacular occasion showcasing some of the best racing flashbacks seen for years, but what was our highlight?

Back from the brink – 1968 MGB GT

However, with the assistance of experts such as MG specialist restorer, Paul Walbran, Kerry has completed an impressive restoration and saved this car from the scrapheap.
