Not entirely where I fit into this. I've owned a 1958 MGA since 1970, a TR6 since 1991, and just bought my TR8 a few months ago after years of wanting one. My oldest car, the MGA, is my most heavily modified, with no bumpers and an MGB engine. My TR6 has been lowered, as has my TR8. Maybe if my MG hadn't been a rusted out wreck when I acquired it, I would have been less likely to modify it. I've resisted doing body mods to all of my cars, though, figuring some future owner might want to "properly" restore them. But they are mine to have fun with for now. It really is sad that the Wedge doesn't get more respect. I looked at a couple of rusty TR7 convertibles before buying my TR8, and wish I could have rescued both of them. But I've also looked at several other MGs, TRs and Healeys over the years that were just too far gone, too. I'm glad some of you guys are able to save whole fleets of Wedges for the future, modified or original. I had to assure the previous owner of mine that I would indeed cherish it, before she would let it go.
