$10K for a "restored" MGA seems cheap....

 

[Steve]

Yes, but look at the door gap, that might give an indication of how good the restoration was....... Hence the price?

Austin America? I thought the tin worms got most of those.(mericfully)

 

[tony barnhill]

Aw, man....that Citroen Maserati...you guys in Canada get all the neat cars!

& that old Austin pickup, man......

Canada + Citroen = Rust
Canada + Fiat = Rust
Canada + LBC = Rust

sigh

Ahhhh, the beauty of a tupperware special. There's a very nice, just restored "Dart" available in the Ontario area (I think) for mid-20's.

Some interesting stuff there

@Tony

There aren't that many Citroen SM's here in Canada probably about as many as are in the States, I think there may be two or three of them here in Calgary, but overall I don't think they are a very common car here in North America in general.

The Austin pickup? It seems to me there area a few of them down your way, I actually haven't personally seen an A40 Pickup here in Calgary, although I do know where three 1950 Standard Vanguard pickups are here in Calgary...

I'm pretty sure they aren't for sale...

You're right that it never rains, it pours....Thursday I picked up a solid running '63 MGB over in Mississippi...Monday I'm going after a MkII Midget over in Georgia....& I haven't bought an old MG this entire year!

The Citroen SM that was sitting in the same lot as my MGB GT when I found it, is still sitting in the same spot. The owner of the garage would leave the gate unlocked just to have someone disappear with it. I looked at it again a few weeks ago and it hasn't got any worse in the 4 years. The guy who owned my GT owns the Citroen as well.

I would LOVE the Citroen.

P.S. All this talk of Ontario is making me homesick! Luckily I'm back in Toronto for Christmas; coming up soon.
