77 MGB - Four tone paint - some kind of electronic ignition - hood props - cheap tires - new springs all around - mixture of poly and rubber bushings - original exhaust - fuzzy seatcovers - stereo out of old F150 pickup - virtually no rust - right front wrecked and semi well repaired - just about right for me!

78 MGB - Done right by a good PO, and I only bought it. Tell Jim how nice it is. But I did put in a Datsun 5 speed.

79/65 MGB - Tubby - Carmine Red - V-6 - T-5
Going to do this one more right, less rat rod!

There's a good article on the huffington post that mentions the Mayan calendar extends way beyond 2012... The Mayans believed in beginnings as opposed to our culture that is engrossed in endings/closure..

Lucky it's not IBM. Most of there original software was going to go belly up after 30 years. Anyone remember Y2k? didnt we think that the world would end then. In that sense the Mayans did pretty good.

Yep, the problem is Mayan's new nothing about Leap Years and the fatc that the year is not exactly 365 days, so in essence their calendar is way off.
