I've been thinking about converting my MGB into a limo....

converting my MGB into a limo....

That's an excellent idea! Lots of folks enjoy driving at night without headlights or instruments!

Hey, speaking of...I made a quick trip over to CN this a.m. and saw Shinsen's MGB....nice.....

sorry - its been done

Naw, Rich's is a chrome bumpered beauty while this is a rubber baby buggy bumbered beast. PAY ATTENTION!

Ah I apologize in that case and offer 10lbs of angle iron towards his limo conversion.

Might be a performance match for those old VW Beetle limos

Rich · « **Reply #1558 on:** January 15, 2007, 05:46:10 PM »

All I know is that w/ all the smog stuff that strangled those older MGB's, this one's gotta have a lot of get-up-and-go.........

I like regular limos. You can't get head in a convertible limo without too great a risk of causing a disturbance.

Yeah, yeah, it's photoshop. But keep in mind that's the way it should stay.

Otherwise, you get things like this:

Ah, covered limos.

Nice Smart...must be the Bra BUS edition...

we get tons of those big arsed truck limos. thankfully none of the gullwing Corvette type. A friend of mine has an early 80s Caddy limo that he picked up cheap. Well trashed but oh so 70s/early 80s.

Actually thought of getting one of those when my kids were small...bought a minivan instead. One problem with the van, my oldest [who was about 3 at the time] would get out of his car seat and open up the groceries on the way home from town.

Damn, I leave for a week and this thread balloons another 12 pages.

For those who care to know, I moved into the house in Missoula, MT yesterday. I have to go register for class on Wednesday, and then next Monday it's back to the grind. I had a good trip out -- got to spend a week visiting friends in Steamboat Springs on the way here. Sadly, all of that snow that's been hitting Denver has been missing the high country; the mountain was a little bare.

It's a balmy 5 above right now, but most of Montana has gotten jack squat in terms of snowfall this winter. Stupid El Nino... I blame Mexico for this.

Glacier this summer?

Boxer2500 · « **Reply #1568 on:** January 16, 2007, 12:19:48 AM »

Why of course. Just get your ass on Highway 2 and keep on comin'.

Ultra · « **Reply #1569 on:** January 16, 2007, 12:22:58 AM »

Looks like myself and a couple other bikers could end up there.....

If you've never had a chance to see the place, you owe it to yourself to do it. I know some great places to camp out here too.

John Denver's damnable song notwithstanding, the Rockies are the most beautiful area I've seen in my life.

Ultra · « **Reply #1573 on:** January 16, 2007, 05:29:15 AM »

Seen mountains but not the Rockies.

Rich · « **Reply #1574 on:** January 16, 2007, 07:37:00 AM »

I've seen them many times and each time was like the first in terms of its impact and grandeur..unlike many other experiences I've had in my life........
