Yes, it=E2=80=99s quiet here.

I=E2=80=99m planning to do an annual service and possibly will sell the GT =
after so many years.

My wife=E2=80=99s health has made, that she is not able to travel with anym=
ore and our son has little to no time anymore.

So I have not used the MG hardly last year and expect the same for this yea=
r.

Pity after almost 30 years with the GT=E2=80=A6

A car should be driven more regularly, than a few times per year. 

 

I stick with classic vehicles though, as I=E2=80=99m actively restoring and=
 riding Puch mopeds from the early 1970=E2=80=99s. 

This winter I totally restored a 1970 Puch Skyhunter to one like I bought n=
ew in 1970. 

A total nut and bolt job and an engine overhaul replacing clutch and oil se=
als.

The VIN numbers differ 6 digits only!

For those who like to see the results, I can send some pictures.

 

Cheers,

Hans

Serviced my '69 B starting last month. Took her out for a spin in the neigh=
borhood but she wouldn't pull uphill.  Fuel pump volume way down, carbs wou=
ld run almost dry on acceleration.  A new electronic SU pump took care of t=
hat.  Gotta rebuild the old points-type for a spare. Then I decided 10 year=
 old tires were pushing my luck.  She's wearing a new set of Coopers now.  =
She's running like a top.  Planned a trip to see this spring's Bluebonnets =
around Willow City, TX, but the weather has turned to crud.  
Waiting for sunny days.....
