:cool::cool::cool: Believe me its been along time I think I got the car around 1995 or so . It still needs glass and seats interior whole bunch of stuff but for the first time yesterday it moved under its own power . I got burned out on the project and left it under blankets here in Florida . I met my buddy Gerry and things changed , he has been a major help in getting this car back on the road plus a crap load of cash over the years . http://s271.photobucket.com/albums/jj134/mariesigns/?action=view&current=007-5.flv http://s271.photobucket.com/albums/jj134/mariesigns/?action=view&current=004-4.flv http://s271.photobucket.com/albums/jj134/mariesigns/?action=view&current=003-4.flv http://s271.photobucket.com/albums/jj134/mariesigns/?action=view&current=005-5.flv

Yes Iris blue it was painted about 5 to 7 years ago . The painter offered to do my 60 mk 2 jag .. I thought $1600 was to much / out of my budget then what a mistake . He retired and doesnt paint cant find anyone around now worth a hoot . Going to take it to the GOF < gathering of the faithfull > in Ocala Fl this weekend see what the MGeezers think

Nice barge pictures! We have a couple of free ferries near here that hold one school bus, two cars, or three roadsters we're crossed with the Miata Club a couple of times. Makes me nervous.
