British MGB
I believe French demon is right, I started to say American motors

Actually, the British version of the MGB would be a mirror image of that one. The OP's version is for LH drive.

I helped a high school friend put a 289 in a MG Midget. It was a pretty quick little car.Before acquiring my Demon, I planned to purchase a MGB.
don’t you think pretty quick is an understatement? The 289 is about as long as half the car.
It's out of a car....
Well, it was stock but for cam, intake and carburetor. Plus, it still had the original rear end. I actually gave him the idea when I was bench racin about puttin the 340 outta my Charger into my 67 Triumph Spitfire. Our cars were about the same size and he had that 298 that came outta his daddy's wrecked rustang. The rest is history. lol

I agree that is an MGB dash frame. If you want confirmation, look at the back side of it and see if you can find some places that look like someone tried welding on it. The marks would have come from the shorted out Lucas wiring that plagued those nice little cars!
