Colorado Springs Completely Unrelated to Guns Question

I don't see any seat belts in the pictures, rear view mirrors are on the front fenders. For $10,000 you could be looking at some KIA's or a much more modern car. Probably doesn't have a catalitic converter exhust. Emmisssion control may not meet requirements in your location.

Now, how are you planning to use this car if you buy it? Looks like it's good for parade driving instead of everyday use. It's not a good kid's car either.

I would pass on it. Reserve price may be out of sight too.

No: power windows, power locks, AC, seat belts (?), 42 years old, but it looks cute though.

A little old lady could drive it to Church on Sundays too. (your wife)

It's a collector car....a toy...I think it would be a blast to have. Don't need no stinking power options....it ain't an everyday transportation car!

I agree. Nice to be able to roll up the windows in a rain storm when your power everything quits on ya.

I don't trust anything that runs on a battery. Total faith in my hands and arms.

Being it's age it's probably not required to meet emission standards and seat belts would not be required either.

It's a nice toy, if I could move my legs and work a clutch I'd have a desire for it myself.

One of my neighbors back in the '70s had a restored '50s Morris Minor he used for a daily driver. Neat little car.

I was an MG guy myself - had a 1960 MGA roadster in college fifty years ago, then during my mid-life crisis bought a low miles (35,000) pristine '74 MGB from a good friend in 1990. Sold it to a collector from Dallas in 2000 after putting 4,000 more miles on it:

It hasn't hit the reserve yet ... so if it doesn't sell , I might take you up on the offer.

Didn't make the reserve I see. I'd still be happy to run down there and take a look at it for if you choose to pursue it.

Don't claim to be an expert, but I'm an old car guy who's done a few restos and mods in the past.
