who writes: A year ago I bought a MG TA in a very bad condition. I was
looking for a restoration project off a prewar MG with a lot of work, and it found
it.
The engine is leaking out of any corner, the timber was rotten away, the
chassis is bended, and ther was a lot of corrosion on the body work.

Jim,

I appreciate you adding that comment. I noticed the other day when I
was bored and had nothing to do that there were a number of new member's
cars shown in the Gallery. Is there anyway we can be notified when
something new is added to the site, i.e., Classifieds, Photo of the
Month, Members Gallery, etc.?

Thanks,
Gene

I owned TC # 6964 for 25 years and sold her 4 years ago to a chap in New
York. I am just in the process of purchasing a true basket case TC # 7006 that is
the remains of 2 other restorations from 3 TC's. A friend of mine in Calgary
Josh Dezwart told me of your website and I find it informative and easy to
navigate. (I need that). Because this is such a basket case, actually cardboard
boxes case, I am sure I will need some help along the way. It has been a
long time since I restored my last one and it was a faithful companion having
never failed me at any time over thousands of miles . I still have a restored TF
but just not the same. Will have to sell TF to fund the TC project. Just
have to sit on the right side again. To that end I would like membership in
your site.
