Went down this weekend of April 12th to pick up my 1966 MGB from Richard Bowler. Stayed with some good friends in Windsor, CO. Saturday morning we went and picked it up. I rented a tandem U-haul trailer, and it worked well.

Loading it was quite easy, as we had 3 guys, and the car is not heavy. Took off top since most of the snaps are missing, and I didn't want to lose it.

Trip home went well, and got about 13 mpg with the Tahoe--not bad.
Here are the pictures showing the as-received condition.
This is the "tricolore" Ducati commemorative side.

Engine Bay--the cylinder head was cracked, so an uncracked used bare head was included.
