Hi there James. Good to hear from you. Hope all is well!

I haven't been on much lately.
I had both knees replaced over the fall/winter. I can now finish my golf swing without the pain at the bottom.
The knees are good now, but the white pearl paint is chipping/flaking from my roof. Poor primer/prep work maybe?

ll,yes i would say its a factory gm thing,the Bonneville's do the same.hood herpes.Waxing with slickmist will help,but if there's no paint to start with then you ..know!!! Jim take some pics to show us if you like?

Spring is definitely here. I took the MG out for a nice long spin today, took my daughter out to an ice cream/mini golf place about an hour from home and she had a GREAT day tooling around with daddy!

Sounds nice,what year mg do you have.My brother has a 70 convrt,has all three tops removable hard and rag.. Black all restored motor trans ect his show car won many trophy's!!!

It's a '54 MG TF. I brought it home last summer, but I grew up riding around in it - my father bought it in '68, restored it in '78 and I remember many many trips like the one I just gave my daughter. I think she enjoyed it as much as I used to!

I'm sure she did,post some pic's in our other ride's?

Washed

FINE AS FROG HAIR !!!

What about the bitch in the swing?

Here's the pic Dave!!!

CoooooooooL ... I like what you've done with that dash. I still think you should have entered it for the 2012 Calendar.

Thanks everybody,this is my favorite body style riv, besides the 69 to 71.

I agree in that this body style for the time is excellent. My personal favorite is the 8th/last gen but follow closely by its previous gen.

Also alongside the Toronado, I also like the 1969 versions.


I had a dream many years ago, circa early 2000's, where I was in a parking lot viewing a white opal 'next generation' Riviera styled as a modern interpretation of the early 90's models.

What remained was the angled tail lights, belt lines and smooth notch back. The rest was updated.

It really got me looking at that generation closer.

Great Look, James. I like it

I new you would like that,i see you have yours in the written out letters.

Oh yeah...I'm gonna get the GS emblem like you have and put it on the trunk lid. I like sporty, don't you?

Yes i do the Buick GS is a sweet car!!!

I love those tail lights on there. They look great with the blue color! The wheel work well too .

Thanks me two!!!

How's old blue sound?
