Mason,
It appears to me that money is no object in your case..It also seems
evident to me that you are not a mechanic..If I were 18 and had a wad of cash
to spend on a 30 year old sports car, I would go for a nice porche 356 or even
a good Alfa..Keep in mind,Mason, that I own 4 MG-B's and have owned Brit
exclusevly since the early 1960's. Money was an object to me,and I was a
mechanic..And I know that there is A LOT of work to be done to an old MG that
may not be required with an old 356..
I am in no way trying to talk you out of buying an MG,rather, I am saying
, that all being equal, there are other means of transport out there that will
get you a better return on somebody's money spent than with a MG..go for it
Mason..We of the list will help answer your MG questions whenever we can.
Yours, H4(Howard)
