Hi Forum, The current Corona Stay-at-Home Directive has spurred me on to become more active in the BCF.
I have checked in many times since joining but have never added any input. It looks like a good time to start.
I have been a British car owner since 1962 when I bought my first car, a 1952 Morris Minor Convertible. A 55 mph wonder that got me through HS.
Currently I am the custodian of 4 LBC's, my favorite and the one that is used the most is a '55 Austin-Healey 100, I have owned it for 18 years and it has been a rolling restoration.
Most everything is done now and it is an excellent driver that can hold it's own at local shows.
I sold a 1963 MK2 Jaguar that I had restored and shown for a dozen years in order to purchase the 100. A great trade.
I still own and drive a '59 Jaguar MK1 that I purchased in 1998 and showed for a number of years. It found a great temporary home at the LeMay Automobile museum in Tacoma, WA for
6 years where it lived in the British car display. It transports more people in style and has served as a wedding livery on a number of occasions.
I found a 1960 Austin-Healey Bug Eye Sprite that had been parked in a garage for 40 years. I started the restoration in 2011 and it is now in almost showroom condition, another great driver.
Last one to follow me home is a 1967 Land Rover S2a. It was parked on he street 3 houses down looking for a new home and it found me. Everything works on this unrestored driver.
It will get it's mechaniclas refreshed. Another project to keep me occupied.
That's it, I love to drive and work on the cars and am active working with the local ABFM group. I belong to the CAHC, Cascade Austin Healey Club and AVANTS, a Seattle based car club.
I have more than enough to keep me busy in my retirement, there is always somethiing to work on and keep me busy.
