9/9/2010: Going to see a 1969 MGB Roadster to likely buy (if all is good)

Found a great deal on a 1969 MGB Roadster with a rebuilt motor 15,000 miles ago (circa 1992). Fairly complete car and it runs great. The day I went to see it the owner had bought a new battery for it. We couldn't get it started however without the help of the *Start Engine* option of his charger and a little starting fluid. We got it to fire and it ran for about 10 seconds before I noticed fuel spraying out from a few tiny pinholes in the section of rubber fuel line to the carb. Told him to kill it. I had heard it run for a bit so I was good. It needs small things in the interior and some minor body work and a paint job eventually, but all in all it is a sweet little classic. A deal for $2000. Here are some pics from the day I first saw it.
