John S's Journal

Well, it’s been a wild ride the last 13 days. From a sudden deceleration as a result of a red light runner and all the hassle that an accident entails, to the worry about whether my car would be fixed or declared a total loss, to the finality of reading the estimate that would indeed deem it beyond the agreed value to repair.

But there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it is green. And it is also red. As in a Flame Red 1971 MGB GT that became my new project. I’m excited to get it going again as it has been stored in a garage for 34 years. I’m also a bit sad that I’ll be dismantling the ‘70 Tourer that I just revived and drove for a grand total of 2 months. Lots to do. Going to retrieve it tomorrow. I’ve got a couple pictures that I took and some from the CL ad.
