I have just returned from the NEMGTR Natter (our annual business meeting) One of our regional clubs raised a serious issue that affects T types now, perhaps MGA's and sooner or later MGBs. Our club w

My TD is as original as I can get it. I prefer to lose to a "real" TD at any show. The driveability issue is a fair one, but I like my car "original" with all the character it affords me. The fun for

This is a common problem, not only with the older MGs... but with all of our British cars. As we all know, overdrive didn't seem to be a popular option here in the states or was too costly... while t

Mike, great question. I would say, from a show perspective, that you would need to have 2 classes for each category - 'stock' and 'modified' - the latter category being for cars that have ANY modific

Last September, at the GOF in Rochester, I had some very strong feelings along those lines. There were an awful lot of 'trailer queens' present. Let them have their own classes. I drove my 52 TD (wi

Thanks Larry. Larry as the post I just sent says, its not the car shows in itself or the judging. It is how to pusuade and or limit the modifications to cars that are somewhat rare and traditional,

As a postscript, I think that what Michael has done is a true labor of love and an amazing accomplishment. Where is the sense of accomplishment in a vehicle that wins because it has never been used?

Mike, guess I missed your point on shows versus preventing/limiting these types of mod in the first place. I think there is zero chance of the latter happening. The important thing is to educate peop
