Title: my old car!
Post by: davidlandy on May 01, 2004, 21:02:24

Whilst browsing I happened upon a picture on the web of my old MGB - its about a quarter of the way down the page - the red 1971 roadster.

this must have been on there for quite while without my knowing - awww the memories are flooding back of that car!

Wasnt concours condition though.

very sad really as I would still like to have kept it.

I got some pics somewhere that i kept whilst restoring it.

Thanks Dave.

I used to go to a couple of MG rallies many years ago and see them all lined up.
And a lad I used to work with owned an old 60's one like yours red, he took me for a spin in it one day, fantastic drive I wanted one, but alas got the LR bug instead  :D

Is there a way of finding out the whereabouts of your old vehicles? I have a S11a and a '72 rangie I'd like to say hello to again!

Col, for a start post details on here;
registration number
last known whereabouts

'landrovernet' is probably the biggest forum, (4000+ members) so why not join that as well.

Alternatively try this link, obviously the vehicle has to at least be currently taxed or in existance. I've checked bfore t osee if various vehicles are still around (ashasAndy 'Shiney')
