I apologize. I thought I had already posted a 'new guy' thread. Better late.....

Thank you for being here!
Retired Air Force. Air Traffic Controller. DFW, Contract Airfield Mid-east (Afghainstan and Iraq for 6 years. Wife is from Eastbourne England. Two sons. One works in our National Parks (Mount Rushmore this winter) Other is in the Air Force (northern Japan).
Am I a purist? No. Midget Mad? Yep. 4th one. First RB. 79. 3 B’s and too many non LBC’s to bother counting. Interior from whatever brownish to black. Exhaust from standard to one steel pac and one (extra) from my RE 500. Luggage Rack? Small to scale. 2 'fix-me Midget manuals and a set of most used tools. Duck and Electrical tape. Fuses and Flashlight (torch). All fit in the scaled down bit of luggage It is from a large Harley (40$) Radio console trimmed. Radio removed. Ipad velcroed to speaker face. Bluetooth speaker box in glove box facing down. Cut speaker holes in the bottom of the glove box...and ta da. GPS and tunes. Lasted for 4 hours. Charge via cigar lighter if needed...which it will most likely never need. New top. Tonneau cover used. Patched and covered it with my Jacket Name Tape. Point of LBC’s for me is to enjoy it all. I may never have it “finished”. Really do not want to finish. I enjoy the journey.

Welcome to BCF from another retired AF guy (there are a few of us on here). Thank you for your service and hope to see you around from time to time. Nice looking Midget you have - you will find we have a pretty active "Spridgets" forum where these and their Healey counterparts are discussed so be sure to jump in there too!
