Two MG owners, a Texan and a Missourian, were bragging in an Arkansas Bar (like they have any). The Texan says "Hell, I can get in my MGA, point it west, and drive all day long and still be in Texas!

I had a club member call having problems pulling a starter out of a '74B. It occurs to me I have never done that. He's saying that the distributor is in the way from the top and there doesn't seem to

I saw a tidy installation of a Chevette motor in a TD. It actually made it a decent driver with little fuss. I would guess a 1275 'A' motor would be a closer fit. Of course, you certainly wouldn't be
