v wasem's 1961 MG MGA 1600
|
Bought the car in 1971 when I was 20. Ran it for several years and then put it in dry, covered storage for the next 38 years. Finally, took it out of storage in May 2013 to bring it up to daily driver. The car has a rather checkered past when it comes to color. It started as Iris Blue. I bought it as yellow with orange racing stripes, while I was in the military, my brother, unbeknownst to me, painted it puke green with black french lace on bonnet and boot. I am stripped all 5 layers of paint, painted it Chrysler Inferno Red, and installed honey tan upholstery.
