Subject: Spitfire or MGB???
All,
Understanding the lists understandable bias towards Triumphs, I have a
question. I know that several of the listers have or have had a MG.
Next month I will be returning from Indiana with my high school and
college sweetheart (a 1974 1/2 MGB). Presently, my daily driver is a 1980
Spitfire. The MG will take some work to get it running, but is otherwise in
good condition. It has been garaged for about eight years.
I would like to do a frame up restore of one of these cars and use the
other as my daily driver. My question: Should I restore the MG or the
Spitfire? What are the pros and cons of either? Expense? Ease of
restoration? Other considerations?
Thanks,
Rob Schuck
