    Well thank you! That picture was a tongue in cheek entry as a test answering another long time egger who was having problems with Photobucket. Note the date...1964...since I just turned 70 last month I had converted that BW photo for my wife. Sorry that this offended you.

    @RRP, I'm not offended in the least. I doubt you would ever offend anyone, especially me. I found it funny when I saw it over there so I thought that I would share the wealth.

    LOL - Thanks! BTW those "white walls" were "falsies" that I bought for $1.50 a piece at Western Auto and Installed myself one tire at a time, by driving over the tire to break the bead, insert the falsie under the rim and then put the wheel in my Dad's trunk and drive up to the "filling station" as they were still called in 1964 and re-inflated the tire to pop it out. My car had 4 tires, no spare and of those 4 tires 3 were by different manufacturers! Besides covering up the difference in the tires with the white wall falsies that was still back when white walls were cool on cars! LOL

    That is a great story Ron. My career also started in public accounting. My wife, and I were also broke financially for the first few years, but life was good and has gotten better. 

    I hate to hear that your car has disappeared. Part of me wishes that someone has it that loved it like you did, but the cynic in me wonders if maybe it ended up at a local scrap yard. 

    I hope you can find it!

    Very cool story RRP.  Had a slightly similar event at the end of college, I had to pawn a banjo to eat (the local Shakey's closed).  Went back a year later and the pawn shop was now a sub shop; never did find out what happened to it.  Nowhere near as cool/romantic as an MG, however.

    @RRP Your memory of those events from so many years ago is impressive. My brain is wired very different. I cannot remember events like that at all. But factoids with little meaning I can recall like I learned them yesterday.

    Great story. I had to do a web-search for falsie white-walls. Never heard of such a thing.
