How odd...Other than the "ugly as a board fence" part, this is every mechanic's
reaction when I tell them that my other car is a MGB...
I suppose the old saying is true..."Education is the key." I wonder if the
folks on
the TR-7 list sit around and say "You know, my car is ugly, a mechanical
nightmare,
AND the decline of BL." I guess it all comes down to perspective...Like
Garfield
once said, "Funny is in the eye of the beholder."
