I got the email about Gary's Run and I got inspired to make another "push" in trying to track down the shysters that have bits and pieces of my MGB. So far, not so good.
I just tried calling "British Sports & Spares" in Tacoma, WA and the number has been disconnected. I know "CB" had some health issues but I have no idea what's going on and now of course I'm back in Vancouver. He has my engine and my OD trans.
The body tub, front crossmember, rear axle and a big box of other parts is with Joe Aros, formerly of VIP Auto Restoration and/or Buffalo Restorations in Puyallup. He no longer works for Buffalo and none of my contact information seems to work anymore. Last I heard he had moved somewhere near the 512 in Parkland (near Tacoma).
If anyone has any leads please let me know. I should probably just let it go - the body tub is in terrible shape and I'm sure tons of parts will be missing by now. It's likely a lost cause and I should just start again with a rust-free driver.
However it was the first car I ever bought and sentimentality is never rational!

stealing a few cars and parts which he sold to put money in his own pockets. I was very lucky to get it back but he stole all the money for the body work. Sorry to hear about your plight with auto restorers out your way. Maybe you should look at a really good one this time and just drive the wheels off it! goodluck whatever you decide
