MG MGB Technical - MGB gearboxes

I have a 1969 MGB 4-syncro gearbox and also a similar gearbox with overdrive. The first was taken out to fit a 5-speed box, the o/d gearbox taken out to lighten a B for racing. I have advertised them without success but am reluctant to dump them because both are in good condition. Does anyone want either of them for use or simply for educational purposes ? Available to collect from Stone in Staffordshire

If you could ship it here, I'd take the OD gearbox in a heartbeat! ;)

It would almost be worth the airfare from the states to pick it up and bring it back as carry on luggage.

Mr Homer,
If you still have the gearboxes, I would like to take you up on the offer of the OD one.
I hope to be in Yarnfield just after the Christmas holidays and could collect at that time.
If you could leave a telephone number or email address, I'll get in contact.
Best regards
Jim

If Jim doesn't have the O/D 'box from you, I would also be interested.

Also, the non-O/D 'box may be a useful source of spares, so I would be interested in that and could pick it up if passing on the M6 or A34 at some point.
If it were both gearboxes, I would be prepared to make a trip out, but obviously defer to Jim (previous post) as he was there first.

Regards

Dave
