That's right Bob! As friends have stated "If I knew how old I was going to get, I'd have taken better care of my body!"
And, as far as old cars getting old, I should be so lucky as to have my body looking as good as those in the photo. (Of course, I'd still be a teenager then.)
 
My 17 YO son put it in the proper perspective when I refered to Dolly Clmentine as an old antique...he reminded me that 1974 was the same year that I graduated from high school

Age - the main reason I retired from teaching high school....every year the kids were the same age & each year I was a year older!
&, to a 17 year old, 65 is ancient!
 
Well my name is Frank, I live in Danvers, Massachusetts, its one town over from Salem. I'm having a bit of a problem starting the whole project. I basically found the car in my garage about 2 weeks ago under a pile of old cardboard boxes and planks. I need to haul it out and throw away alot of stuff in my garage so I can jack it up and put it on blocks. I printed out the list from Tony's website, it looks really helpful and complete and most of the stuff I can figure out. I am going to order a Moss catalog in a few minutes and since I have no school tomorrow call the MG repair shop and Autozone to get the books. The color of it isn't sky blue it is maroon. I think eventually I would like to get it repainted. I'm aiming to get quite a bit done next weak as far as cleaning it and draining it. Ill try to post some pictures, I have a camera but Im not quite sure how to get them onto a post or if i have to make a website. If I have any questions when I get started I definitely know where to come now. Thanks
