I've been spending time getting caught up on some car shows that I had Tivo'd. Tonight, I watched Wheeler Dealers on HD Theater and they were doing a light restoration on an MGB GT.
I got a kick out of the episode since my dad had a 1971 MBG GT and it was the car that I learned to drive in. I even took my driving test in the car. He'd toss me the keys and I'd be gone for the day when I started driving.
Extremely underpowered, but a pretty fun car to toss around.
BTW - First car that I owned was a 71 Datsun 510 2-door. Lowered, sway bars, etc. ...that car handled pretty darn well!
