My summer cars are 70's sports cars, 1975 TR6 and 1971 MGB GT.
No high-tech T-Roof here, basic black canvas/vinyl: fewer leaks, light weight and complete with foggy plactic windows.
A solid hi-fi 8 Track for sound, no dainty cassettes or fiddly MP3's here.
Brakes, complete with the 'new' safety standard of dual circuit master cylinders.
Of course the tires were substantially upgraded in the 70' with European style 'Radial Ply' tires.
Louvers and scoops? none, simpler was better!
Despite being nearly 40 years old, these 2 cars will more than keep up during my daily commute and weekend rides and provide a real driving experience.
For the rest of the year, when the snow flies (forecast for tonight), I rely on more driving experience, my Viggen.
