Long time member of the MG Experience who got tired of the political debates and negative attitudes. I have a 77 MGB that I have owned since 2005. It has an early 5 main engine, chrome bumper conversion and has been lowered. I currently have the engine out while I freshen up the engine bay and remove the remnants of the rubber bumper mounting points. My other hobby car is a 1991 seven series BMW.

I look forward to discussing MGs, and hope I can contribute.

Bill "Carson" Conrad

Thanks! I feel welcome already.

The seven series agree
So true, I wish I could say I didn't love that car, but my old man-ism sure does like it.

That's ok Carson, I don't admit too loudly that I love my Z3 either. Although my passion has always been LBCs.

Welcome to the board.
