Still Looking

[Phil Yearout]

Nice Smith; enjoy it! For many years an MGB/GT was my daily driver. Every time my old Toyota 4Runner starts right up despite the neglect I heap on it, I think of all the afternoons I spent under that MG's bonnet. I don't miss a one of 'em. But if you need a pair of SU down-draft carbs synchronized I think I could do it blindfolded.

Nice pigeon very early with a Syracuse frame. I owned two Austin Healey 100/4's one was the Le Mans model with the aluminum body panels. Sold them both to buy an engagement ring. They would be worth a whole lot more today than my wife's ring but I still got the best deal.

Craig - Good response, particularly if your wife reads this site.
My first, (ahem) experience was in an MGA. At the time I was about 6'3" You figure it out

Another Healey guy huh. My 3000 MKIII went down the road when the first kid came along. Part of funds received bought my first double, a Fox Sterlingworth

I had a Triumph Spitfire that was a great car despite it's obvious shortcomings. To this day, I have never owned a vehicle that started so fast. It had a manual choke....I'm sure there are people on this board who know what that is....and even on the coldest morning you would pull the choke, hit the key, and it would start in something like .0000003 seconds.

Here is a picture of my 100/4 1953. The picture is 1971

I had a 1957 Bn4 roadster. It burned in a barn fire and I ended up with a pile of molten aluminum.

Craig,

I never knew!! Even old Researcher had a bit of time with a 100/4 Bn1.
