My brother's MG Midget which he restored. He didn't manage to drive it this year due to working on his house but he lets me use it whenever I want. I took it to a couple of shows and a few general drives:

I had to let this baby go sadly as she was rotten as a pear. I did cry and I am not ashamed to admit it:

Cool Re: what classic cars are in your family?

I got a 1978 Pontiac Trans-Am. It is the GOLDEN bandit edition. It is in perfect condition too. I am the original owner - bought it in 1977 and since then... have only put 11000 miles on it. That's right 11000 original miles. No mods, (except for a radio that i put in about 20 years ago, but i am searching for an original on Ebay). I will show some pictures soon. It has never been rained on, and has NEVER seen snow, sand or salt. No rust. It has a 3 speed auto, and the Pontiac 400 6.6L engine. The sound of the engine...oooooooo...I miss it. Too bad it is winter here. It is in my garage now. Can't wait for summer!!!

Those 421's run real well. I put one in my '68 Firebird 20 years ago and it stayed even with my friends '68 Z28 w/ DZ302 motor in it when we drag raced on the local marked off Qtr. mile (we called it Orangewood International Raceway LOL) in Garden Grove, Ca.

Re: what classic cars are in your family?

57 Chieftain 347/auto
63 Catalina 389/manual
66 GTO 389/TriPower/4speed
66 Tempest 326/auto
71 Tempest 350/auto
56 Chieftain 2dr sdn /389 four barrel/auto (From a GTO)

My dad had a 57 Pontiac Super Chief 347/TriPower/auto and he talked about that car often as the fastest car he ever owned. It was very quick for those days.
