You drove through Bennington, Vermont? Bennington is my hometown! I love it there- small world. Replies to this message: andys120 (Jul 26, 2008 6:38 pm)

Replying to: fintail (Jul 26, 2008 12:36 pm) I think with the Supra Twin Turbo, in order for it to be of any interest to a collector, it's gotta be stick, leather and Turbo.   I can't see any righteous tuner guy shelling that kind of money out for a cloth automatic Supra.

Replying to: boomchek (Jul 26, 2008 3:40 pm) I think some who own those cars get a little ahead of themselves as it is one of the few Japanese cars of the past 30 years to have any collectible potential at all. I agree with your statement, if I was looking for one of those it would be a turbo. How does the targa affect values? Replies to this message: boomchek (Jul 28, 2008 9:24 am)

Replying to: jrosasmc (Jul 26, 2008 3:34 pm) Yeah Bennington is a great town but I was just passing thru on my way to meet some guys in Albany. It's more fun to take the back way than the boring Turnpike even if the Mass Pike is the only East-West Interstate North of CT.   I didn't have time to step at Hemmings.

Today I saw an MG Magnette of the type Magnette owns. Can't be many of those on the road on this continent. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jul 27, 2008 6:05 pm) Mr_Shiftright (Jul 28, 2008 7:06 am) magnette (Jul 29, 2008 4:36 am) fintail (Jul 28, 2008 7:26 am) kyfdx (Jul 28, 2008 10:06 am)

Replying to: fintail (Jul 27, 2008 5:56 pm) A friend of mine has a '58 Magnette.. He says he is in the process of restoring it.. No evidence, so far, though..   He also has a '62 MGA that he's driven back and forth to Key West, one and 3/4 times...

Replying to: kyfdx (Jul 27, 2008 6:05 pm) magnettes are tough to restore. No body or trim parts, and not much value when you're done. Too bad, I really like them. Replies to this message: magnette (Jul 29, 2008 4:36 am)

Replying to: kyfdx (Jul 27, 2008 6:05 pm) Wow, thats at least 3/8ths more of a trip than the average old British car completes Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jul 28, 2008 10:06 am)
