MG in need of TLC

I've been social distancing around some quiet back streets, saw this car yesterday, spent hours thinking about how I could photograph it, went back today and got this.

That would be a great project d00d. I would love to do that up. Nice angle.

Thanks Ld. I didn't know you were interested in that kind of thing. It seems to have little rust, and the moss could be easily cleaned up.

Nice angle.
Thanks. It's a fisheye lens, a thing I don't often find a use for, but I'm pleased with the effect here.

Re: MG in need of TLC

How could any owner of an MG allow it to deteriorate into such a poor condition? It deffo needs much TLC asap.

If only I had the space (and the money) For me, the best part is when the new paint is sprayed on.

I had an MGB with wire wheels many years ago and it was a great car. Good angle on your shot d00d and the car needs a little TLC.
