Default Re: Need some guidance -- Rust issue

PS I have always had a two seater -- MG - TC, TD, Midget, B and A as well a TR-6. So I am very familiar with the ravages of rust. This car is a true pleasure. I laugh to my self when I read about the poor creature comfort, etc. Anybody remember wood floors and adjusting carbs. This car is a true pleasure to cruise in.

I loved those British sports cars despite all the issues. I had a 1956 Triumph TR3 (small mouth) with knock off wheels and side curtains. Later came an MG Midget then a TR6. I remember the kit for synchronizing the SU carbs very well. I hope we old dudes don't hijack this excellent thread with our nostalgia but I could not resist.

I plan to check my 07 Coupe doors when I get it out if spring ever comes. I can hardly wait. I go to the garage and look under the cover occasionally and hope for springtime. Stupid Groundhog!
