I've not been into British cars all that long. My wife, however, has always
loved them (her dad has had upwards of 40 different LBC's). We currently
enjoy a 1979 MG Midget.
Sometime last year, though, I saw a Morgan for the first time and knew
immediately that one day I would have to have one. I stumbled across this
list mostly by accident (the company that I work for built a mailing list
searchable archive engine, and this list is being archived). I joined the
list hoping to gleen off lots of information about what to expect, what to
look for, etc.
So, like yourself, I'd love to hear about what people think of their cars,
and any information anyone can provide about what to look for and such.
