Dang, that's maybe the nicest "B" I've seen. It's always fun to own one of the best of anything. I've had MGs and Triumphs, and while the electricals can be a bother (although that seems addressed on this car) they are basically tractors mechanically. Robust and low-revving. A little bailing wire, a hammer and a screwdriver fixes just about anything.
And yeah, it's screaming out for chrome-bumper conversion.
