    I kept the key fob from my 1960 MGA. The wonderful memories will never leave me.

    Ok great, I'll look forward to it thanks.
    A bit of commentary on the experience would be nice too.

    Excellent video. Cool car. Nice shots of your Midget and the MGA together.
    I really like the Early 1500 MGAs. I see you also installed the late wingless knock offs.
    In 1970 I bought and restored a 1956. The previous owner threw a rod so an overhaul was not an option. I installed a 3 main MGB engine.
    Mine was Old English White with Red interior and wire wheels.
    I miss that car.

      Yes, the 1500 is also the most beautiful MGA for me, especially because of the small tail lights. The car originally came from the USA and needed a full inspection at the Tüv after the restoration and they didn't like the wing nuts. It still has the original 1500 engine, but it has been given a 5-speed gearbox. It drives really well with this.

    I would rather hear the engine than the stupid music.

    Didn't like the 'music'. We want to hear the engine, feedback about what it's like to drive and a walk around.

      I will make another video with the engine sounds, but unfortunately I don't have time at the moment.

    Nice car, but unfortunately the Federal Exhaust Gas Control Ordinance and the Transport Tourism Emission Restriction Federal Ordinance will soon ban exhaust gas fun and transport tourism emissions!!!
