Well after 30 years of waiting I can finally say I am the proud owner of a
1970 Red MGB. I fell in love with MG's back in the 70's but since my
father was a V.P. with Chrysler, we only drove their products. As I
grew up and graduated college and started working for them myself well I
couldn't pass up the great deals we were offered and kept driving them. NO
MORE! For my 40th birthday my beautiful wife bought me the one
toy that I have always wanted! I got it last Friday morning after a
extensive three month search and driving more dogged out MG's than I care
to mention... Well when I drove up to this guys house and saw this one
I knew it was a man that thought like I did and he had put alot of work and
$$$ into it for me already. He was asking 4200 for it but I got him to
sell it to me for 3500. I picked it up early that am and drove it down to
Buckhead to a mechanic here that I would highly recommend to anyone upon
request. After he gave it a two hour or so go over I knew this machine
would never anyone's but mine ever again! Everything checked out and I
went out on the road and blew out 800+ miles on it this week... breaking it
in :)
For those of you that have owned one of these cars for a long time my hats
off to you. It is truly a special breed of automobile. I am looking for
any information on the MG Clubs in the Atlanta area. If you have any
please forward it to me.
