You asked "Am I insane?"

If you weren't, you wouldn't fit in with the rest of us.

Have fun with the MGB. You must have an understanding wife. And, remember, eight cars is still a lot cheaper than a bimbo, not that I would know about either...

Maybe everyone owns a Mustang because they DO know what an MG is!! LOL

I had a brand new 1966 Mustang GT with all the good stuff. All of it.

I have a friend that buys rebuild and sells Mustangs.

I have good thoughts about mine but would not have another. Sigh

Wonder why that is.

as far as my small "fleet", i have garage space for 7 (well i can get the Midget and MGB in and make it 8!) cars. 2 car garage on the house and the other garage is 2 stories and as big as the house. Guy before me was a real car nut and professinal pit crew chief for a drag racing team in the 70's. He built this amazing garage. Pics from the cars taken in the kast few years last years are here..
