MGB End of an era, the MGB has sold

After 15 years, selling and buying back, countless drives, learning and wrenching, my RHD MGB has now moved on to new owners. It was time, I've had good fun with the car but want to try some new things. The car is off to a new home, but still local here in Utah. The new owner was very excited, and I hope the car serves her well.

A few memories:

Day one in 2011, being dropped off at my house in UT after a long journey from Canada

congrats! I know you were ready to have it gone. Looks like happy new owners
 
As I get older I find myself getting less precious about holding on to things just because I’ve had them a long time. Spending time in the hospital recently gave me even more perspective. I’ve got great memories with this car, and now it’s time for something different.
 
I have had my B for over 48 1/2 years. Not parting with it soon.
Well done!

I seem to like the variety. I once explained it to a friend by saying that it was never my goal in life to own only one car. Good thing given my history. :D

That said, I have had my Morris Minor for 11 years and it is my only keeper. Maggie’s not worried about being sold.
