Well, let's see... My wonderful other half's first car was an MGB-GT. She has a 
different one now, and I really need to build a new engine for it soon.

Many years back, she bought me a MK II Sprite in need of engine for my
birthday. When I came home with tales of a certain Bugeye racecar for sale,
she told me to buy it, and when I was reading an add about a couple cars for
sale, she picked out one with a 3000 at a good price and said I should call, 
even tho I was sure it would already be sold...

We still have all of these and more. Tilly may prefer not to work on them 
much, but does enjoy driving, riding, race support, shows, rallys (including 
the gimmick rallys we write)  and many other auto activities. I think I'll keep 
her!

Yowsers! I suppose this is a good sign, on a one of a kind car.
