    That is a rare beauty! He is so very lucky to have found a brand new one. How long has he had it?

    I don't know the body styles between years all that well, but I can tell from tail lights that it is earlier than 1960. The color appears to be iris blue, but is a bit different shade than I have on mine, which started as iris blue many years ago. My MG has 5 layers of paint in some areas.

    Can you tell me the story on how he found this car? Remarkable. I have a nephew with a similar find. He found a brand new, still in the crate, P-51 engine in his grandad's barn. I have no idea what a P-51 engine costs, but I'm guessing several hundred thousand, maybe even a million.

    I'm still feeling well. I have been so active that I've forgotten my 11 o'clock meds on several days, so yesterday, I combined my 11 o'clock and 3 o'clock meds and now take them both at 1 o'clock. I think it will work out. We'll see.

    Great to read you are still surfing that Big Wave! Keep it going.

    I will contact my Bro in Law for further data and revert to you vdub.
    He is a real car fan and when he married my sister they drove off on their honeymoon in an open top E-type Jag (in white of course!)

    Marcia wants an XKE, but I don't know if she'll ever get it. They are getting rare and pricey...

    Yup that's a gorgeous car. I don't usually notice or care much about cars. I've been known to ride in a car with someone then still need to follow them to it in the parking lot on the way back from wherever we've gone, because I never took notice of what we were driving in in The first place. But that car, I love. One of my favourite colours too. And I love hearing about you feeling so good you forget meds! This can give us all hope.
