Sad to say, the GT is up for sale. I'd like to keep it, but storage and overall costs of running 2 cars is too much for me. So, it may be gone soon.. (tears welling up)

Sent the midget in today to have the motor rebuilt. No time and limited space in the garage have moved me to have my mechanic friend tackle the job. So, off it went to have it's heart renewed..

I just had the GT appraised Wed. night. It looks like it measures up to very good rating, and its replacement value around the $10,000.00 mark. This is great, seeing that I have about that much invested into it. Yeah!!!

Had a wonderful time yesterday at the 2009 European Car Show- Calgary. It was hosted by the Vintage Sports Car Club of Calgary and the event was held in Stanley Park on the grass. I venture that there were about 100 cars there. It was an eclectic mix of british - MGs Triumphs, Healey, Daimler, Sunbeam,TVR, Jags, Morgan, Bentleys; German - porsches, Mercedes, VW (1), Swedish -Volvo, Italian - Fiat (cute entry),Ferrari, Pinafarina,Talbot and a motorcycle display. It was truly enjoyable. The people and friends from the Calgary MG Club abounded under a canopy of cloud cover for the majority of the day that blocked out the direct sunrays. It was hot though, about 28* After the event Roselle and I went for dinner with some of the club members. Enjoyable to say the least.

It was a godsend that the clutch plate wore out when it did. If it hadn't been for the clutch needing repair, I would have no doubt kept running on 20lbs pressure, thinking it was a bad gauge. Needless to say, the clutch, flywheel and lower bearings are all replaced along with a new oil pump install. Car is running great. 90 lbs at cold start up and 50 lbs hot.(It has 10 40w in it right now, for the break in period)I'll be switching to 20w 50 soon.
