Hi,
If I post a message on this forum and want to respond to someone, do I do so via the Forum or direct Email to the person or both.
Thanks,
Sue

OK, so I just want to take a moment to babble on a bit before tackling a piece of picked fence that has to be painted in the basement and thank everyone for being so welcoming. Feels like family!

We bought the MGA last year and she was under the weather for the British Marque Triatholn in Northport ME so a friend gave us his MGB GT for the trip. Now, I had never even thought of a GT. Why would anyone want a little car that was not a rag top? Well, on that trip I simply fell in love with that little car. With the overdrive, we could keep up with traffic (sort of), there was plenty of room, it was quiet, great visibility, no fear of rain, pretty darn cute as well not to mention the luxury of roll up windows! Golly, we can go ANYWHERE with this! The hunt was on. Not many GTs in this area but I did succeed and look forward to putting allot of miles on her this Summer and well into the cold season til the snow flies.
