A friend has just bought a Wolseley 15/50 shell (same as MG Magnette ZA & ZB?) with the intention of removing any good bits and weighing the rest in for scrap, but it seems far too good to destroy as the shell is surprisingly rust free. There are no doors, interior, glass, bootlid or any panels forward of the bulkhead. So it's not viable as a project without a donor car. The running gear is still fitted, including what looks like a Gold Seal engine. A second engine and two more gearboxes came with the car. Any suggestions what the hell to do with it, gratefully received, as are any ideas about other vehicles that shared the same mechanics. Early MGA perhaps?
