Well, according to you and I (and probably most others
on this list) you are. But that doesn't mean that the
guy obsessing about his welds isn't an MG enthusiast
too, does it? I mean, I've seen people get upset over
people who paint their RBB bumpers body color. I've
seen people snigger when people fit aftermarket alloy
wheels to an MG. The bottom line is, who cares?
Why the heck does anyone really care what anyone ELSE
does to their car? Why does it bother you that the
guy is obsessing about his welds? Obviously,
restoration is his thing, and he's a fanatic about it,
just as you are a fanatic about driving. You have an
MG, he has an MG, and everyone is doing their thing.
Everyone is happy.
Right?
