Howdy everyone,
   
  After 10 glorious years I'm selling my BGT with the hope of picking up a certain TR6. Below is the ad that will be in the newsletter and on the website. Please call or email if you know anyone who's interested. I have lots of photos too. Thanks!
   
  1970 MG BGT For Sale
   
  Fully restored in 1997 and garaged since. The car is kept in excellent running condition and is show quality. 4 cylinder engine, 4 speed transmission with overdrive (in 3rd and 4th gear). Paint is beautiful and the body is very straight with only surface rust on very few underside places. Interior is very clean and seats are in excellent condition. This car occasionally has served as my daily driver (when my less-reliable, modern vehicles have failed). Some non-original modifications were made during restoration: paint color; soft vinyl on the seats isnt original style but of very high quality (most think its leather); Weber carb (original functioning SUs come with sale); larger new headers and manifold; steering wheel; and minilite wheels. All else is stock. Reason for selling: I need a TR6.
   
  $9,900 or best offer. Call Chuck at 801-910-2263.

Good morning everyone,

Folks if anyone is interested in running out to Wyoming on Sunday 29 July for
this event let me know and I can contact them.

They contacted me and asked if we would be interested in coming over, I told
her I would pass the info along.



Regards, Mitch D. Johnson "Govn'r Genr'l"



Sunday July 29 2007 the Wyoming Downs race track in Evanston Wyoming is
holding a classic car rally!

We would love to see your club there!!



There will be reserved parking for your cars, free general admission for the
day, and a place to hang your banner.

It would be a great time not only for the classic car fans to come look at
your car, but also a wonderful day to come to the races and bet on the ponies!



Please let me know if you are able to attend and how many cars so we can
reserve a place for your car

Message-ID: <20070713233912.E421E1879DD@autox.team.net>

Hello list,
 
Where is a good place to get four tires in the old Metric Radial for the TR3
(165/R15)?  Discount Tire and Pep Boys no longer have them, no one else
seems to know what I am asking.  I noticed that Kumho made a good one at a
reasonable price, no longer available and the replacement (165/80-15) is 16+
weeks out (per TireTack.Com). I know I can go to Coker for the high-priced
stuff but this is for the daily dirving wheels.
 
BTW, I did find a great deal on four snow tires at Les Schwab ($26.90ea),
with or without the studs.  But that is no place for this old TR.
 
Thanks,

All,

Thanks for the good suggestions, found a set at Burt Borthers, right size
for the car so everything should work well.  

I was really hoping to have them on before today to make the run but it was
not to be and I do not trust the 17yr old tires that are now on the car,
maybe next time on the Alpine Loop.

Fruit flies like a banana.

Okay, silly jokes aside, time does indeed press on regardless.  The first
Alpine Loop run was made in 1988.  The trip coming up next month will
be the 20th instance of this event.  What should the club do to mark the
occasion - dash plaques, T shirts, extra grip duct tape on Rob's mouth
to keep him quiet during the raffle drawing?

I had been working on getting the Killer Spit street legal and ready to go

To Mark and anyone in BCMU-
Home needed for orphan British car
 parts. Free. 

Having moved to Minnesota, I'm now cleaning out the Utah home to prepare it for lease. I've run across some parts that just don't belong on the curb during the Avenues neighborhood cleanup. The notable bits include a useable rh door skin for an early e-type, and tonneau covers for a tr-4 (ratty but useful) and 70 mgb . The mgb tonneau (at least that's the car I think its for) is the cover for the top and roof framen but does not cover the seats. It is in good shape.  

Pass this note to the other clubs if you have the e-mail and think there might be interest. I'll be in slc into Monday so first come tales whatthey need.

For address or questions call 801-231-0400.

Mark,

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father.

On June 12, I died two times and was brought back on the third heart paddle
application (about an 8% probability), on a cruise ship between Italy and
Greece.  I had open heart surgery in Athens, Greece.  I am doing well now, but
I am very tender about the subject, and I hope that you know that I mean it
when I say that our thoughts and prayers are and will be with you and your
family!

Best wishes!

Dennis Hoagland

 Cars found in barn

                               Very interesting


A New York man retired. He wanted to use his retirement money wisely, so it
would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal .

The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15yrs.; the owner and wife both had
died, and there were no heirs.

The house was sold to pay taxes.

There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and they
had been welded shut. Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense to see what
was
in the barn, and it wasn't complimentary to the property anyway......so,
nobody made an offer on the place.

The NY guy bought it at just over half of the property's worth, moved in, and
set about to tear in to the barn.......curiosity was killing him.

So, he and his wife bought a generator, and a couple of grinders.......and
cut
thru the welds.

What was in the barn...............?


This will take some time for you to look at,
So plan ahead.

Although the barn is real, the story is apparently a hoax.  It was a car 
dealer that continually added cars throughout his career to the barn.

Still some great pictures!  There are quite a few cars I would not mind 
having in my collection!  (I wouldn't mind that big of a barn, too)
