I drive my '74 B to school every day. It's about 42 miles each way from
where I live (Ventura, CA) to school (UC Santa Barbara) and I have only had
it fail me once with a faulty starter solenoid. (Good thing I had a parts
car!) Other than that the car runs great and I rarely have to repair it. I
too carry lots of tools, but as of yet have had no need for them. I covered
about 17,000 miles last year and will probably cover around 25,000 this
year. The B is a great daily driver and I love owning/driving/maintaining
it.

Subject: BMC Week, Dailey Drivers
>Hi All,
> After the recient reminder that was posted about BMC week, I went to the
BMC site and went through the stories there ( saw your's in there mike L.).
It got me to wondering just how many of us are driving our LBC's as dailey
drivers. I know that there are some obvious daileys on the list (barney..)
but with marks report of 400+ list participants, I was just curious as to
how many of us drive'em dailey, and how many are garage queens.
> Personally, I just have the two mg's, the '72 roadster that is my dailey
at the moment, and the '72 GT that is in the process of referbishment.
