Here I go again. Just finished my 76 MGB rubber-to-chrome bumper conversion project and enjoyed every minute of it. Especially the chats with the good folks at BCF. Time for a well deserved rest, right? Well...today I was minding my own business when a friend called to tell me about a 69 TR6 for sale. I called and made an appointment for Thursday to see the car. I'm told it's a driver and I am in the market for something thats easier on $3/gal gas than my pickup truck. Well,my neighbor stops by some 15 minutes later to tell me of a MGB that's for sale for $1500. The bait's on the hook! To make a long story short, I'm now the proud owner of a 69 MGB/GT, purchased from the original owner the car, and I drove it home!!! Here's the clincher...I'm still going tomorrow to see the TR, and if its half the car this "new" B is, I'll probably buy it also. I have got to be CRAZY. but I keep thinking that soon these $1500 cars will be gone and I'll look back years from now and say, "I wish I'd bought that car..." I'll let ya'll know what happens tomorrow. Bob
