Just saw some interesting tidbits.  Range Rover replaced by a model with a
32 valve, 4.5 liter 220 hp V8.  Wonder if those heads will fit on an old
B-O-P alloy block...

New MGD will debut in fall of '92 as a 93 model, based on Rover 200 platform,
whatever that might be.  Another Rover project is building "new" MGB-V8s.
Says Rover Special Projects is considering th eRange Rover 3.9 V8 in old
MGB bodies.  Hmm, neat stuff!

As for old cars, we have a 79 Midget for $6,200, 16,000 "original" miles.
Wonder how many reproduction miles are on it?  A '67 Cooper S, only $6,000.
Also listed is this SCCA FP Midget, $8,000 invested, best offer.  Enough of
this, time to check the compilation.
