According to specs in the original brochure that I have the FiberFab MiGi replica has a wheelbase of 94″, rear width of 58″ and front width of 59″. Those width measurements are likely for the body and not the tire track, since they are simply labeled width.

Thank you. By the way, how can I post pics on this forum from Photobucket?

They use the stock, full-length bug frame. V-8 s have been shoehorned in, but often by removing the side panels from the hood. That hood is narrow and a 289 Ford would more readily fit than a 327 Chevy..

You see. I have a brand new, Glass Works 2″ x 3″ tube chassis, with a Mustang II front suspension, new (not rebuilt) Chevy 350, 330 horse (never been ran), 700R4 transmission, narrowed 9″Ford, 4:11, triangulatd 4-bar rear end in rolling condition. Currently, I have a 1969 VW Squareback body sitting on it. I thought a MG would be an interesting body to put on it. My chassis has a 94.5″ wheelbase. Wish I could get some specs on the MG or talk to some folks that are running V8’s in them.I am really computer ignorant and wish I knew how ro search this site or add pictures of my setup.
