I went t o my first car show wit h my Dad when I was 12
years old. It was t here t hat I saw an early MG and have
want ed one ever since.
The past few years I set t led on t rying t o find an MG TF in
good shape and bought t his one I brought t o t he show t wo
years ago . I locat ed it online at a dealer in St . Louis and fell
in love wit h t he Aut umn Red color wit h Biscuit int erior.
Chip Hanback gave me some advice about MGs plus
suggest ed I call Ken Gaidos who recent ly bought his Jaguar
XJ from t he same dealership. Ken helped me t hink t hrough
how t o negot iat e a fair price. The MG was shipped t o
Nashville and JD went t hrough t he car t o make sure
everyt hing was in good shape.
How I appreciat e t he friendships and support of ot her
Nashville Brit ish Car Club members!
Since t hen, my wife, Terry, and I have t horoughly enjoyed
t he car, driving it every few weeks.
