Bob -
I don't want to offend any Midget owners - it is a void in my life that I
really do need to address. But... buy the GT! If you've read the recent
thread on GTs you know that the MGB GT is about the most lovable little
workhorse that has ever hit the collector-car market. Buy it and never
look back. You'll never regret it. BTW, unless it's a rust-bucket, $1800
is a steal.
Let's put it this way - if you don't by the GT, please let me know where
it is - I'd be interested. If you don't buy the Midget...
