95 Camaro!
Joshua Duggar, the oldest son on the TLC show "18 and counting"
is now the proud owner of a 74 MG midget!
Hes a very nice guy, and has a car lot in Springdale, Arkansas...
he said his father used to be an MG enthusiast so he traded me even....did i mention great guy! smile
my Camaro is worth about $3000, so i think i came out good.
it needs body work and paint, but i got lots of practice on the midget, so im not to worried.
it needs door locks and keys also but it runs quite good, and even though its just the 3.4L, it is fairly fast,
most important, im happy with it!
If Josh stops in please give him a warm welcome.....thx ...zimmmy

A friend of mine once traded a dead honda accord for a popscicle... I think he came out on top of the deal considering the condition of his accord.

Glad to see you got your trade, Zimmy, though sorry to see you without an LBC. Hope all goes well for you, and don't be a stranger.
