The wife wants me to sell her 72 MGB. Couldn't find the classified section. The SC tag is gone, it now has Oklahoma tags. We'll see. I keep thinking of the 17 months of work and cost to restore it. PJ

She doesn't drive it anymore, to involved in other things. All I do is drive it to get everything warmed up a couple times a month then back in the garage and cover it up. PJ

Yep! When the wife stops driving it, her fun is gone. You'll need to sell and find her something else, if you want her on those car trips.

That is a beauty of a car, you shouldn't have any trouble selling.

Tough sometimes to part with something that you've put so much work into, but if you and the wife aren't using it, than maybe it is time.

I installed a Mohair top from Prestige in the UK since the first photo was taken. They actually made it to order. Much nicer looking and being thicker, cuts down quite a bit of noise. The seats are Suffolk leather from the UK also and much more comfortable than the originals, you never get tired in them. Carpeted trunk etc. PJ

You won't have any trouble selling but sure do understand not wanting to. The car is perfect and if I were in the market for a B would be in touch.
