I've loved little British cars since seeing a TR4 on a summer night in '73. I soon bought a '71 MGB, "The flexible flyer" followed several years later by the same '73 B we have now 25+ years later. We taught both our Kids to drive in Our MG. Our MG, "The old girl" is part of the family.

Hardtop Project Part 1

Posted on: Saturday April 28, 2012

Taking off the side windows

I was so excited to get the hardtop today that I thought I would use the energy to start tearing down the side windows and see how easy they are to take apart and replace the plexiglass. Turns out they are easy to take out of the hard top- all the trim came off easy and the window screws came out easy. The hard part is there are twelve screws that hold the side window frames together by corner brackets, and I could only get three of the twelve screws out, the rest are seized and are not moving,...

Hard Top

Hardtop

I just bought a factory hard top that needs some work from a fellow club member. It came with new side windows I'll have to replace and needs seals and paint. I'm thinking of painting it white. I used to have a Parrish hard top but sold it about 10 years ago. Last few years we've been driving the car earlier in the spring and keeping her out later in the year so a hard top again seems to make sense!

Swing Into Spring 2012

Posted on: Sunday April 22, 2012

OUR MG and the Goodwin s MGB

MG Car Club Western NY Centre held its annual Swing into Spring today at Mulconry's Irish Pub in fairport NY. Great time, good food, and Guinness- whats wrong with that! I even used the heater in the B today because my wife got a little cold in the 39 degree spring air!

Snow

Posted on: Friday March 30, 2012

Took the MGB to the store tonight and the weather was clear. An hour later it was snowing hard here in Upstate New York. So I guess it will be parked for a little bit before I drive again. I talked to a friend from the MG club Sunday about buying a factory hardtop from him so more about that later.
