...it was so cool looking and so much FUN that I’ve recently been looking to replace it. Wish I had kept in the garage. Good examples are in the $20+K range today.

My brother bought a brand new orange-red 1972 MGB GT in the fall of '71. A fun little car. He drove it daily for 10 or 12 years, then stored it in a friend's barn on a Virginia farm. Seven or eight years ago he recovered it, had it shipped home and made a project of it.

The engine has been rebuilt, the interior spiffed up and a new coat of paint applied. He drives it a few times a month, usually to the pub for the Irish session, and displays it in British car shows. He has not complained of any electrical glitches- yet.

My favorite was my '56 Triumph TR-3. I wish I'd stored that away instead of selling it!
