UK-based Frontline Cars has revived the MGB with two restomods that cater to different preferences. One model is powered by a V8 engine, while the other is fully electric. The conventionally powered variant, named “LE60” to commemorate the original model’s 60th anniversary, will be limited to 30 conversions. These vehicles will feature a widened track and body, and weigh only 2,473 pounds (1,122 kilograms), which is roughly equivalent to a Mazda MX-5 RF.

The Frontline LE60 is equipped with a new 4.8-liter Rover V8 engine, generating 375 horsepower, almost three times the power of the original car. The engine delivers 297 pound-feet (403 Newton-meters) of torque to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission developed by Tremec and a limited-slip differential. With this setup, the car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in approximately four seconds.
