Rear hub oil seals

Hi all,
I have been working on my Mg's rear brakes / hubs today (1967 BGT).

Re: Is it OK to pass an MGB off as earlier than it is?

Hi, I am not sure what the regulations are when a car has been re-shelled, whether it can still carry the original body number or not and also the engine number being changed back. It would be interesting to see the registration document to see if it ties up.

Re: Old Residue behind Driver Dashboard (renewing car bodywork)

My first MGB GT (1971) had a similar appearance with several areas covered with what I assumed was a sound proofing / rust prevention coating. Does yours have the same appearance in the battery wells? Mine also had both wells finished in the same way and even the underside of the battery ...

Re: Electric windows ?


Can you provide the link to the Moss kit? I can't find it. The RV8 didn't have power windows when new. I believe the manual winder mechanism is the same as the old MGB.


This is where I saw the Moss kit:

Re: Coolant leak

Hi again Remy, I'm not very familiar with electronic distributors but by the internals I meant any cable connections, the rotor and the plate they attach to.

Re: Coolant leak


So the new valve is on, no leakage.
Charles, I only just saw your post so didn't have the chance to take your advice. I got the car running in the garage without signs of major leaks, only a little sipage from the gasket but nothing major.
I took the car for a test around the estate. I had to ...
