Hi Everybody,
I have recently regressed to my youth by purchasing a 1964 MGB - The year I graduated from High School. Later, as a young Marine Pilot I owned two MGBs in 1971. The first one which I ordered from England when I was overseas was smashed against the side of the ship during unloading in Boston Harbor - so I ended up trading the smashed one for a new one at Boston MG Dealer. That BRG MGB - lasted about 5,000 miles until I found a Lotus Europa at the MG Dealer in Havelock, NC where I was getting it serviced! So I went through that used Europa which I later traded for a brand new Black and Gold John Player Special Lotus......... Not all of the best decisions I have made.. So now, 50 years later I am back where I started - 1964 BRG MGB!
I will have lots of questions!
Thanks,
Hale Irwin
