MG MGA - Identifying chassis

I passed a house near to where I live and saw a bare car-chassis in the front garden. Out of curiosity, I had a good look at it over the fence, and I think that it is an MGA chassis. Are there any distinguishing features that identify it as an MGA chassis instead of anything else?

It looked similar to the ones in Original MGA - humped bar behind seats, twin battery cradles, scuttle support.

There was a rather rusty engine that look a lot like a B-series next to it.

This is purely for my own curiosity.

If it looks like this it is an MGA. http://www.eclecticmotorworks.com/dcoupe07.html

Dan,

Take some oil and poor it over the two crossmembers under where your legs would be and see if you can find the numbers and report back...

You never know what you could find...
