    This is kind of cool: The other day an MG T-series drove past our office. No idea who it was, but nice to see something that old getting fresh air.

    With a supercharger, roller camshaft, 40 thou overbore, 12" alfin drums, Koni rear shocks, big 185/16 Michelins, and an MGB front swaybar, my MG TD is planted, responsive, and - most importantly - fun. I built it to run hard [I run with a pack of turbo Miatas, 944's, and 911's] and while I may show up last on our Saturday morning pancake run, I get more compliments than even the dark blue 911 Carrera with the whale tale.

    Plus, I get to fold my windshield down - try that in your fancy German coupe...

    The most appealing T-series I've ever spent time drooling over was at an old-school hot rod show. Very much function over form, which always hits my buttons.

    Also, Judson superchargers make me tingle.

    I tried drag racing, but kept blowing the apex for turn 2... Xbox Live gamertag— GRM Tom

    That's awesome... and looking at the exhaust, I bet it's not quiet.

    Not a T - How about a Citroen DS in a snow storm?
