I dnt own an MG, but I would imagine that you can buy parts. A quick google search found this

MG's are great little cars and a blast to drive and if you don't mind a beater it would be a fun little weekend car. First thing I would do with an MG shell is install a 4AG/E w/ems, rewire the lights/dash and then work on the suspension.

Restoring a MG to original would be not only time consuming but will hit your wallet very hard. Go checkout the rag 'Classic Car', a british rag I used to buy, and then you will understand the uphill battle.

Not an original, the 2004 ZR

do you think is it to spend a bucks for the MG Parts ?. We have this ZR in our garage and im thinkin to sell to a junkyard. It seems that the gear box, head gasket, and drivers side window mechanism still works.

I have no knowledge of the newer ones and very little of the older MG's but I have known people who restored a few and they are definitely cheaper than some other resto's. Restoring should be an act of love and genuine passion for the car and some people take years to restore one so it does not hurt their budget as bad. There is an MG Midget in BRG for sale here in my town but I'm not in the position to buy it and I have another car in mind somewhere down the road.
