I'm a lover of oldtimers, with a preference for British cars.
In my younger years, I was a fan of US cars, I owned two Corvettes, a Pontiac Formula 400, whereas my daily driver was an Austin Morris 1300 ADO16 two door sedan.
I did all the repairs on it myself, and that is (I believe) where the love for British cars started!
Today, I own a 1976 Triumph Spitfire I bought many years ago, but only finishing the restoration I started in 2014 now.
Beside it, I drive a 1958 AH Sprite MK I, a Frogeye, which needs a respray, as it is still with its original 1958 paint!

I will retire soon to start my new career as a so called full time restorer :cool:

Have all fun with your car(s)!
Mike
 
Hallo Mike! Gruss aus Connecticut! Hi Mike - greetings from Connecticut!

Have to admit, I got into old-timers by helping my dad work on family cars in the 1950s. Nash, Dodge, even MB pontons. On a visit to Ticino, I saw a man working on a TR6 in Peccia. Great car!

Good to have you with us!
