Okay, this was in the 60's, and I can't find a picture of our car.  But did come across this MG Roadster, identical to the one we had purchased.  This was taken while in Vienna this summer and the price was $25,000!!

 

 

Our story, back in the 60's we were taking a walk and came across an MG Roadster in a vacant lot.  Had some rust damage on the right side!  Engine needed a little work.  Price $500!  In the 60's and college students alot of money, but had to have it.

 

 

Sold it for twice as much!

 

 

Sometimes it pays to hold on to things!!! LOL
