Understanding the lists understandable bias towards MGs, 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 in advance,
                        Rob Schuck
