Hi Philip,
Sounds like a good idea to me. I'm in Binghamton and am interested in
meeting up with others in our area.
I belong to an informal group that meets at the Bull's Head restaurant
the first Tuesday of the month. I'm also in the Syracuse MG car club.
They welcome all British cars but are mostly MGAs and MGBs.
I'm the original owner of my TR250 which is in pieces (frame off) a 73
MGB, and a BMH MGB body shell with a 68 and 69 parts cars to go with it.
None of this stuff runs right now, but it might in the fall. If not, I
will have to show up in my 2000 Focus :-(
I hope to have an MGA and a TR6 someday.
Hope you don't mind me cc the mg list
