Item 1: Your Car. Congratulations. Daunting as they seem now, I'd say the issues you have to deal with are MINOR. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. Adjusting valve clearances was one of the few things I found fa

Given the events of today, are we entirely certain it's legitimately an A (aircraft). Seems to me more of an LFL (Large French Lump o' metal). Didn't seem to be doing a lot of air-crafting today... I

First off, you'll have to forgive my ignorance of MGA's. I've recently acquired one (1960 1600) after many years of being a late 60's TR loyalist, so I'm in sort of virgin territory here. My question

For my 60 MGA, my regular insurance company (GEICO) wanted $600 per year for minimum liability (25,000 here in NY) and would cover the car only at blue book value (not sure what that is, but definite

I agree with the sentiment wholeheartedly, and if you get the venture going and are able to produce such a car in the price range you mention, I'll take two. I just fear that you'd find your tucked-

LOL. I wasn't going to respond to this either, but... I'll also stand by that offer -- especially for A's. I'll also take any big Healeys in solid roadworthy condition for as much as $1,750!! Serious
