Damn you guys are killing me.   I wasn't even gonna open this thread up but 
I did.   Now I can't stop reading this thread.  I can only hope that some 
day my daughter will appreciate the fact that I am hanging on to an MGB-GT 
in hopes that some day she will be ready to invest some time an money in it. 
Sure would be a ton-o-fun even though she doesn't know the
first thing about turning a wrench ..  But she sure enjoyed the times we 
spent toolin around town in the MGA when she was little.

Tried to teach her to drive a stick once,  at least we were still talking 
after that.

Time will only tell.  At least I can still drive her around in my cars if 
she
decides she doesn't want one of her own.

But then she is getting married next year.   I might have to start planting 
the LBC seed in her fiancis head. One trip around town in the Healey should 
take care of that situation.
