The MGB GT, that's the one with the ugly lump in the bonnet and the V8 inside, isn't it?

You could try the resin shells at Pendle Slots UK they have a few
MGB permutations. Or attack and convert a Scalex one. Or look at what George Turner Models have to offer.

The car with the Rover V-8 is the MG-C. The B-GT is the hardtop version of the MG-B.
I have a 1/32nd model, don't remember what company. It might be Japaneese. I have
an Airfix MG-B roadster that I am building as the Group 44 car also.

The B was definitely released out here with v8 squeezed in. Though it may only have been the roadster. I assumed that it was done in practice for the US market.

The MG-C was powered by a 3 litre straight 6. As the engine was so big the coil front springs were replaced with torsions bars like the old Morris Minor and Marina!

Visually the C has a much wider bonnet bulge than the B.

Pendle may still have the BMC32 resin models of the B and the C.

Thanks all the only reason I want to get a MGB GT is I had a 72 butternut squash color. and in august. of 92 I saw a Alfa 155 at Mid Ohio in DTM garb
I didn't know that is what it was tell later that year I saw a DTM race on cable and there was a car that looked the same as the one I saw in Ohiowith one difference. the color was Alfa. red on the tv the one I saw was black.

[MrAdept]

Ninco has done several liveries of the Alfa 155 that ran in the DTM around 92.
I think I have the Alfa red ones, Jagermeister orange and Martini white. There may also be a black one.

The DTM has some particularly well fought battles (ahem... races) at that time. I used to enjoy watching.

Can't answer about the slot body's , but the B did come in a B GT V8. It was the Buick Rover V8.
