A little bit about myself ...
After owning 3 Jaguars (1976 XJ6, 1964 MkX (RHD), 1966 MkX), I spent about 5 years without a good project to work on. My father-in-law owns a 1931 Model A Deluxe Roadster and each time we're out, I get the itch to get something. At some point (Can anyone really say when) the MG bug bit. Fortunately, I live across the street from a paint and body shop, so that part should be easy.
Will be attending the following events:
