My New Toy
I have wanted one of these since I was in college. It is a FiberFab Migi -- a replica of a 1953 MG-TD, VW-powered with a fiberglass body and way too much fun to drive.
I bought it on Ebay earlier this month. Tally-Ho! --David

That looks fun to drive! When I was eight years old my mother gave me a 57 MGA Roadster she bought off her brother, then several months later she asked me if she could trade it for a family car (79 Ford LTD esquire station wagon). At eight another eight before I could get my license seemed like forever so I said yes. WISH I HAD IT TODAY!

My first thought was 'if I only didn't live in Missouri', then I saw you were in Wisconsin...
This isn't your winter car, I hope

WOW! That's a terrific car for scooting around campus. Hope you have a safe parking place though, as I'm sure not everyone appreciates and respects such.

Lucky you. I've wanted to own a British sportscar for the past 45 years or so. Since affordable TD's are rarer than hen's teeth, your FiberFab replicar is the next best thing. I'm jealous.

I read an article about these once, believe it was Car and Driver that said this is a case where the replica was better than the original. Just think, with fiberglass you don't have to worry about rust damage. That's a really nice find.
