MGB GT LBL591E
Good topic, I just joined this forum.... You may be interested to know that LBL591E is alive and well. It will be restored to race condition here in Vancouver BC Canada, hopefully for the 2011 racing season. This is the car that ran Sebring 1967, 1968 and 1969, and the Targa Florio 1968. The car was 'dropped' on the loading docks in the UK after returning from Sebring 1967, the shell damaged beyond repair. All components, equipment and even ID tags and locks were then transferred by BMC Comps to another shell, and prepped for the 1968 season. After Sebring 1969, it was sold off by BMC (as was typical with Comps cars), and it soldiered on in SCCA racing in the USA. Amazingly, the car today still retains many original Comps parts. I will try to post a photo taken at the Targa Florio if I can figure this out.... Ralph
