Nice red car...bet it wants inside that garage!
 
The $2000 dollar MG took the garage space of the $30,000 Land Rover!

That’s too funny.

But you’re not alone. When I brought home my $2,000 78B four years ago, it displaced a new 2000 Dodge Intrepid. Ever since that day, my B has had to share the garage with my wife’s SUV.

Ya know, you’d think that I would have gained some extra space replacing a huge sedan with a LBC – but that wasn’t the case. Don’t know how she did it, but my wife’s vehicle is actually taking up more space than ever before.

Go figure?

Hey, guys...I've 2 Mercedes that sit outside all the time & my 15 MG's have a covered garage - & some of them haven't been started in years!
 
One of the advantages to buying an old house with old garages is that there isn't much room in them for the Surburban, Jeep, or pickup truck...so Dolly Clemtine has one all to herself.

Unless you buy an old farm house. My house was built in 1850 has a small garage, and a huge 6 stall tractor sheid. At one time I had a boat, 3 MG's,a full size Van, two riding lawn mowers, my son's car,a 5X10 trailor and a shop with two 8" work benches in it. Now I'm down to the van, my GT,two lawn mowers, the trailor, and my shop. Loooooot's of space.
 
Tom, now that's what I need. Upstate NY is rural and there are plenty of barns around. But I don't think they'll let me put one up in my neighborhood!

David..there are 3 Midgets & a TD included in the 15-count!
 
So are you picking up a car or just restocking some parts? I got a GT shell you can have for free!
 
I believe he said something about a car. He need a semi and a car hauler for trips like this

David...tell me about the GT shell...I've a friend who has a rust bucket & is looking for a clean shell....Tom knows about his car!
 
The rockers are probably gone and its been wrecked in the front. Doesn't have fenders or running gear. Has good door glass and rear quarter lights. Doors are in good shape.

Just don't want to haul it somewhere.
 
Darn, I've got 3 or 4 like that already!
 
I know of an almost rust free '74 shell that might be for sale. Doesn't have a hood, passenger fender,or engine but is rolling. I'll contact the owner and see what he says.
 
K, please do....I sold a rustfree Mirage bodyshell just before he spent $1700 having his car delivered here from Chicago.
 
To everyone who has multiple MG's and a large 3+ car garage to work in... I envy you. I need to move to the country.
