New to the group and MG's

Post by swill89 » Sun Jun 15, 2014 4:52 pm

Hi,
I have recently saved my mg MGF from the scrap yard, slowly bringing him back to life. It should (fingers crossed) be on the road in the next month so just seeing if there were any car meets arranged for 'the summer' and if there is a younger generation going, i am 24 years old, i have nothing against lets say the experienced but would be nice as well to see people my own age :)
Ive attached a couple pictures of where the car was and where it is now. Be nice to hear some response back :)

Sammi

Hi Sammi and welcome to the Register.

Congratulations on saving another one of these great little car. I know the size of the smile on your face when you get it how you want it, and start driving around some of the great roads you have in the South West it will have been worth it.

The Devon & Cornwall section has a fair few members and a fair few new members, I am sure if you keep your eyes on the D & C region threads some meetings will turn up.

Ohh yea, most of us old farts turn into grinning 20 something's when we get behind the wheel of our F/TF's :D :D :D

Well so far just new brake disks and pads and a pair of wiper blades needed to pass the MOT, few small bodywork issues to sort for cosmetic reasons! The walnut insert on dash is tatty can these be removed and replaced easily?
