I've been reading this forum for some time and thought I'd pull my finger out and say hi. I bought my '67 colorado red BJ8 back in 2004 on ebay from Classic British sportscars in Fredericksburg, VA, as I was specifically looking for a left hand drive car, and it seemed like a good one. It was registered as Nutmeg7 in VA and was owned by a man who was selling off this as well as an e type, merc pagoda MG and a few others. I've fitted 72 spoke painted wheels , a Dennis Welch air filter, spin on oil filter, home made side exit exhaust and period seat belts. The previous owner says it has a hotter cam than standard and when pushed it feels pretty quick.
As an aside I have an MGA 1600 roadster which was the first car I ever bought, to keep the healey company.
Last week I took her out for a Sunday drive round the bugatti circuit at Le Mans. Having been to the 24 h race almost every year since 1991, allways in the MGA or the Healey, it was a fun time.
