I had a 1972 MGB. A little known feature in older British sports cars is the checkbook scanner built into the driver's seat. If you have $400 in your checking account, it will cost $390 to fix it, and leave you $10 for beer to cry into. 

I went the Italian route with a Fiat 124 Spider. Same deal. Only our $10 went to Chianti.

i thought that was a 10 buck headstart on fixing the lucas electrics?

I learned to always carry a winter coat driving my Austin Healey back in the 60s which, being a British sports car, was always prone to breaking down.

 

 

Ahhhhhh..... Lucas, the Prince of Darkness...

Now where the hell are those Whitworth wrenches at....

Route 81 north opened very early this morning.

Mrs. 45Doll and I discussed our driving performance last night and definitely took away some lessons from this whole incident.

There are some repeats, but also new videos in this package, plus some aerial photos at the end showing the main collision mass.
