Hi all
Glad I found your forum have been reading many of the postings and have found many MG lovers like me. I am 62 years old and a grandfather. My first car was a $17 Morris Minor when I was 15 - it was the only thing I could afford and I had to restore it to havce a car - traded it on a '54 Hillman Californian which I drove until out of clooege - then traded it on a '58 MGA and then a new '65 MGB - have had MGs most of my life - usually cars in need of a restoration. Several times an MGB has been my daily driver - a '79 for two years in the mid 80s and a 74 chrome bumper from 1988 until 1991. Currently have a fully retored '67 GT and a 30 thousand mile 2 owner BRG B roadster with factory hard top. I drive both cars several thousand miles each year. I am in the middle of restoring a 59 MGA Twin Cam - ash green and Gray - it will have a twin cam motor in it before the spring and it just came out of the paint shop - body on restoration (body was off 18 years ago so no need to do it again). Have two TR6 for my 35 year old son - he likes TRs becasue his Aunt used to haul him around in one when he was little - will make one car out of both - will be Saphire Blue with black.
I am into cedar strip canoes, guitars and singing and of course playing with my two grand sons - one 12 months old next week and the other 8 years old.
Can;t wait until winter is over so I can get the MGs out on the road - we have had bad weather in Maryland since the fisst of the year.
Glad to be a new member - look forward to helping and being helped with questions.
