just after i got my '73 b, i was in the parking lot of the apartment complex i
lived in at the time. a neighbor (about 10 years old) came up to me and asked:
<<wow! what kind of car is that?>>
it's an mg.
<<a what?>>
an mg
<<well, what kind is it?>>
a b.
<<oh! i see! m-g (pointing to the emblem on the trunk) g-b (pointing to the
great britain sticker on the tail)>>.
uh... not quite. the car is made by mg, and the model is a b. like your truck
is made my ford, and the model is a bronco.
<<well, i've never heard of mg before>>
it's a very old car
<<what does mg mean?>>
morris' garage
<<is that on main street?>>

rog-

A few years ago a kid asked me if my '78 B was a Mercedes Benz?

BTW - I had a new garage built last summer.  The builder's name was Don
Morris - really .  Guess what kind of Garage I have!
