Save me from myself

One of my coworkers asked me today if I'd be intrested in a 76 MGB. I guess it's a basket case and is completely torn apart. I have no idea what the body tub is like, and it's only about 5 miles from my house.
The guy is not asking much.
I just have to keep chanting
"junk car zoning law"
"junk car zoning law"
And my garage is full
see "I gotta sell my TR4" in the 'rumph forum
I'm probably gonna go look at it at least.
If it turns out to be anything good, I'll pass on the info.

I don't need an exorcism, I need to find a kind,generous person with an empty pole barn that would let me fill it with LBC derelicts, and not charge me rent.
I don't ask for much /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Wait until you come home from church one rainy Sunday to find somebody's dropped a dead little Midget in your driveway because they know you have an MG Graveyard full of them!

Here's a minor justification for NOT adopting that particular LBC:

Just keep saying to yourself... it's an affliction not an Addiction!

I can relate.

Nah, didn't bother me a bit!
As far as the dead Midgets, the things seem to follow me home like stray cats. People call me to see if I want another one. Free.
Four storage units here, and three in California. Enough, already!!
