Hello Hans,

Thanks for the heartfelt post. Although we never met, I've always enjoyed

Subject: [Mgs] Without my MG

Dear friends,

We have moved home, which is much smaller than the previous one.

This also was applicable for the space in the garage. 

So I had to make a choice - either keeping my MG, or my 3 classic Puch
mopeds from the seventies.

I have been measuring a lot and came tot he conclusion, that the 3 Puch
mopeds are to stay and the MG had to go.

After 33 years of joy with my MGB GT from California, restoring it, driving
it, and rarely being stranded because of a malfunctioned ignition rotor of
only 9 months and <2,000 miles old) I sold it.

I want to thank the listers for their friendship.

Especially those listers whom I met during my several visits tot he USA and
UK, or who came to visit me:

Rick Lindsay

Rui Gigante

Bud Krueger       - special thanks to Bud for being twice my kind host of
the day

Carl French

Mike Nadeau

Frank Krajewski

Steve Walker

Trefor Delve

Paul Hinchcliffe

Denise Thorpe - who also did a lot of work on het MGB by herself!

Alex Gotfried

Ed Kaler of Justbrits.

Jim Goodwin of Colorado Springs very special thanks for organizing a
fantastic tour around the Garden of the Gods in February 2011

Pics of the Boston area events at Bud Krueger's site:

Paul Hunt            - special thanks to Paul, whom I met a the Heritage
Museum Gaydon UK

My MG pictured during this visit in the UK in July 2011

Paul & me pictured with our cars in front of the museum:

The list has helped me with the restoration of my GT and after learning on
the job, I was able to help others. 

Thanks everyone!

If our moderator is o.k. with it, I'd like to stay in a more listing /
lurking mode.

Cheers, 

Hans Duinhoven

Hello Hans,

Oh my oath !! How could you sell your MGB GT ? .   I built an MGB GT V8 
from scratch and I love it.   I too got short of garage space and took 
the choice of selling my Aston Martin DB 2/4 MkII or the MGB and the MGB 
GT V8 won   - I know that is strange but the value of the Aston did 
restrict my vroom vroom enjoyment - the V8 gives me that without the 
financial worry.

As I have hit 90 my resto days are over so the MGB gives the pleasure I 
need.   Oh but I am heavy into my other hobby - antique maps - see photo.

All the very best
Barrie

Sorry to hear that, Hans...... I'm in a similar boat, or will be in a few
years when we head out of New Jersey to somewhere warmer year round in a
couple of years.
It's actually not very enjoyable to drive my B in the summer as it's too
damn hot, and the hot season seems to be extending in either direction on
the calendar these days,
so the number of days I can really enjoy driving the car is getting less
and less.... And when we do move we will be downsizing as well, so may not
have the garage space
to keep the car.
