Russ, my 1969 was British Racing Green w/ black leather (69 was the last year for leather upholstery)
It came with wire wheels, but I swapped them out for Minilites.
Factory headers, and 45 DCOE Webber Carburetor. The head was ported & polished and shaved 60 thousands.
It raised compression 9.5 to 1, course all the smog pump crap was discarded.
Lowered and a larger front sway bar and added a rear sway bar, and competition valve shocks.
Tires ware Michlin ZX Radials, and of course a roll over bar was installed.
In 1995, I was given a non-running 1974 MGB by a friend, this one got a small block V8.
The work was done as High School auto shop project.
