My intrepid brother, Alan, got word that there was an MGB in a local scrapyard willing to give its' all for possibly your car. He dropped by Barry's U-Pull-It in beautiful downtown Theodore, Alabama to give the old car the once over and report back if there was anything of value to us MGB drivers.
It turns out that it is a '71 model - the same year as Alan's first MG. As expected, the boot and cabin floors have pretty well returned to the Earth from whence they came, but there are a number of useful bits left under the bonnet and in the interior. Some of the body panels could be salvaged, too. There may even be a few no longer made items - small as they may be - still on the old girl. It looks like it was painted in the unusual 1971-only color that BL called Bedouin and it was likely a low-spec MGB due to lack of wire wheels and overdrive.
Somebody is pulling parts aff the ol' girl fairly regular. I've been back tiwce and something has different been missing each time.
