I'm a professional truck mechanic and have owned my business for 36 years. I'm just now getting back with the MG's I loved so much when I was younger. I am recently semi-retired so I now have time for the MGB restoration and to have fun with the Midget. I have a shop in Cameron at my home so you are all welcome to visit anytime. If at any time you need help with your cars please let me know or stop by the shop.
