Love scenes like that. I find myself longing for lazier, less crowded and hectic days... Mid 60s to low 70s and low humidity as well.

I recreated the "Wish You Were Here" cover with 2 G.I. Joes and a book of matches.

Another sort of Traveller. With an extra "L".

I took this pic several years ago. On the side of the truck, it said "Stool Bus #2".

Saw this yesterday parked in front of the local garage in our wee village.


It was running, too. Not very smoothly
-- but it was running.
I did have the presence of mind to ask the fellow in the driver's seat if he was OK with my taking a few photos (which he was). He was warming it up for his wife -- it car's "her rig", said he.

Horrible little cars. Always thought so.

What were those cars like compared to others in their time? Were they faster than other stuff, or any particular handling characteristics that made them desirable? The MGs I came across never seemed to be running properly and were awkward getting in and out of. The midget version, whatever it's real name is, had an incredibly tight engine compartment. Looked difficult to work on.
Are they just one of those quirky vehicles that are enjoyed for their eccentricities?

The MGB was the first MG "sports car" that wasn't a sports car and was put together from the BMC parts bin. The MGA was the last MG that was a real MG even though it too contained some BMC parts. The MGB was neither fast nor handled very well. Compared to contemporary sports cars (Lotus, TVR, Austin Healey and even Triumph) it was a clunker.

Fairly inexpensive (in the US), though, so always popular.
They looked the part of the classic British sports car. Well, until they got the compliant big rubber bumper(s).
There's one of these (ca. 1974 or 75) for sale, in BRG, not two miles from the spot where I photographed that BGT (FWIW).
