My first LBC was a '76 MGB in '78. Everyone was saying "I bet you wish you had
a chrome bumpered MG!", but truth be told, I loved that car. My only planned
mod was to lower the suspension. ( The car did get lowered, but it came back
up when the tree was lifted off. ) Even then, a lot of the chrome cars were
sagging. I guess a lot of them were year round drivers and the salt got to
them.
