Another Lenham MGBGTV8 Roadster 2+2 conversion


MGBGTV8 Roadster 2+2 conversions produced by Lenham are relatively rare but two have popped up for sale in the last few weeks. Lenham Sports Cars are better known as producers of MGB hardtops and earlier, special body sections for Midgets. They are believed to have carried out some 23 conversions and it seems did not want to perform just another V8 engine conversion on a V8 Roadster shell, but wanted to make it a proper 2+2. So their "roadsters" were based on an MGBGT model.
