Mattmacklind- what car is that? It's nice that you live so close to your dream car and road.
I don't know if its my dream road but its close enough. Maybe just a little smoother. The way there and back is nice too. Its one of those roads you just keep driving on and it loses its name, becomes a route #, and you're kind of remote. The car is a '71 MGB GT. Bored .060 over, mild cam, Lucas sports coil, polyuerethane bushings, heavy duty shock valving on original lever arms, rally springs in the rear, heavier anti-sway bar in front,
15" Minilites w/ 196/60 series tires, overdrive transmission. Its bark is worse than its bite, its still a puppy.
Wow... sounds like a sweet ride! Must be a blast to drive.

I'm with you on that. But since I can't afford that dream, I emulate it in the MX-5. :)
A very decent alternative, sir! ;)
Ferrari 330 P4, 250 Cali Spider, Alfa Romeo TZ2...
I can't choose really, on a twisty road in Northern Italy
