Hi Greg... You've got a beauty right there! I'm hoping ours will shine like that after a
fresh paint job! How about a few more pctures? Enjoy Scarlet!!

"An early retirement gift" my dear wife said... "while you can still get in and out of it" :-). On principle, I refuse to go to a smaller steering wheel!

Greg,
Thank you for noticing my 1963 MGB. I really have one of the rare ones because of the 1962 Nov.build date.
I really like your MGA. I know it's hard to get in and out, but that is the character of it. What a beauty it is. My Brother-in-Law bought a new 1959 Twin Cam in red. That's the year I fell in love with the MGA.

Great looking "A". I have a 62 MKII. Noticed your front marker frame. Wondering where you
got it. Moved to VA and have to attach a from registration plate.

Hey Fred, that's a beautiful Mk II you have there. Don't know what your weather is like in Virginia right now, but we've still got a foot of snow on the ground here, and five feet of it either side of our driveway. Itching to get the MGA out of storage!!! At least another month, I guess.
The plate frame was made by a friend of the fellow we bought the car from... a metal fabricator. It'll outlast the car. Sorry, not a catalogue item! The pic of my wife and the car and I was taken the day we bought it... Oct 31 2011
