Q & A: MGB roll(sway) bars

Am I right in thinking that my 1974+half MGB roadster (built Nov 74) was
built without a front anti-roll bar? The holes + captive nuts in the
front framing that the roll bar mounts should fasten in to are there,
but the front wishbone plates are both plain (ie do not have the
re-inforcing plate that the vertical bracket to the bar should bolt in),
and the car obviously has no roll bar, and shows no signs of ever having
had one.
This point has annoyed me for some time - I keep thinking of fitting a
roll bar, but I'm not sure its worth the trouble as
(a) presumably I would have to renew the front wishbones as well to
provide the proper place to bolt the ends to, and
(b) if the car was built without a roll bar and survived so far, maybe I
don't need it anyway

Thanks for your help
