Yes, it is an aging hobby, but I hope that the other youngsters out there
including myself help to keep MGs and old cars alive. Forget the
throw-away generation. I'm here to stay whether they like it or not. I
just hope that someday I'll have the knowledge that only comes from
experience, so that I may share it with other listers.
Long live Lucas. Err. Scratch that. Long live the MG.
After all, if we keep the MGs alive we can remember our friends like Ray.
