Random notes on the restauration of Morgans, MGBs and Minis
Getting Maggie back home last week on a trailer was exhausting. A number of tasks at work and gardening chores kept me out of the garage until Saturday late evening. Obviously, I wanted to find out what went wrong - even though it felt like having a Deja-vu. Back in 2022 I decided to get... Continue Reading →
After doing 1000km in six days with the MGB I finally started the last section - my way back home.

One of the restoration goals for Mildred - the MGB GT I am working on - is to (possibly) function as daily driver for my wife. And something she does rely on is SATNAV. In Maggie, Miffi and Moggi I am using a mobile phone holder with wireless charging. Navigation is usually Google Maps or... Continue Reading →
