Click and Clack, the National Public Radio mechanics once said that the------
best British Sports Car is a Miata, it combines all the fun of MG and
Triumph without the burnt oil smells.

Hi David,
Excellent insight into these constant project vehicles!
My wife always wanted to have an MGB-GT because she loved the look of
the car. I was less enthusiastic because of my past experience with
Little British Cars (a '59 Austin Healy Sprite) and the extra weight
of the GT which made it tail-heavy. But, we stumbled on a '69 MGC-GT,
and I decided that I could be the pit crew on such a rarity. My wife
was disappointed that the car lacked a radio and thought I was kidding
when I told her she needed to listen for parts falling off the car.

That is, until one day she was driving along and heard something fall
off that turned out to be the wheel hub nut followed shortly by a wire
wheel! Fortunately, it was on a local street so she was going slowly
at the time and there was no damage.
