Default Re: My wife wants a car. Oh boy.

My Dad had an 1973MGB for a long time when I was growing up. It sat in the garage for 13years not running. ONe day we changed al the fluids, rebuilt the carbs and it fired right up. It sure was a fun car to drive, even though it was slower than a snail. Tha rack and pinion steering in those cars makes you feel like you can take neighborhood corners at 65MPH or better. The skinny tires wear out fast. Top down fun though.
