Hi, my name is Larry Mastropolo. I'm in northern New Jersey along with my bunch of English cars. The collection now consists of a '56 Jag XK140DHC, '60 Jag Mark II, '76 Mini Cooper, '59 Morris convertible and a '60 Morris pickup. My first English car (my first car) was a '68 Midget I purchased in '69 with a cracked block and head (unknown to me at time of purchase). That's how I learned about cars. I bought a Haynes manual and another engine from a local junkyard and replaced it myself. Moved on to a '68 Jag XKE, two Morgan Plus 4s, another Midget, a Morris traveller, (lost the last two in hurricane Sandy) and now have my current headaches and fun. I'll be posting another thread about oil leaks after a Rivergate Nissan conversion on the Morris pickup. That's how I found this forum. Thanks for having me and also for the information I've already gathered.
 
Welcome to BCF, Larry! Hey, I have a 78 Triumph Spitfire I'll be happy to trade you for that XK140 :cool-new: (In my dreams, right?)
