My MGB: It's here!!!

It's here!!!

I picked up the 'Historic' license plates on Thursday, and was able to drive it down from Frederick today (in the boiling sun). More tomorrow.

Oh, and you voted for 'Shelly'. While I'm not entirely sure the car is a 'Shelly', I'll stick with it for now.

Looking for some help?

This website is mainly being written to help other MG enthusiasts do things on their cars. The car this blog is on is a 1977 MGB kept in Maryland (where it has been most of its life).

Look under 'Discussed Topics' below to find all entries on a specific topic.

A bullet in green at the beginning of each article details the work being discussed in that entry. Purple indicates what was resolved doing this.

Click on the 'My MGB' logo on top of the page to see the latest entries.
