With no snow plowing this year I should be able to keep working on it. Well that and the MGA!!

Fond memories of an MGA! A school pal had one, during the year or so after we went on to college. It was tuned and we had to have the heater on especially on a hot summer day, to try to keep the poor thing from over-heating. Then there was the cracked windshield and.....
Much later in life I have had a couple of MGFs and currently have a ZT, complete with Mustang V8!

Well its a complete build now. Only 1/2 hour to go all the way so apart it came.. The dreaded broken swingarm. Bare frame to start cutting and welding on after sandblaster. I few holes added for hidden wiring....some extra holes welde up... I hate picking out colors and it ain't never gonna be black. Owned to many black vehicles in my life. No mo! I guess it's the day STORMY died.....

Damn it.....the thing fell apart on me....This should really get me kicked off this site. Lol. Just a 4 degree rake 1 1/2 stretch added about 4.5 to wheelbase . Lowered it 1.5. Trike trees will put me back to 6.3 on trail . And going to do this with a 18-19 inch wheel. Not much on big wheels for myself but have done a few frames for 23-26s Might go 21-23 later . This is strictly low budget. Built the neck block on mill. Cost just time. Much stronger than it came from factory. I cover VIN with a steel plate tacked over number so as not to screw it up working around it.
