On Vacation and an MG Question

I’m in Ocean City Maryland enjoying the boardwalk and I’ve been thinking about what color I should paint my MG when it gets to that point.

I bought the car and it was a beautiful Russet Brown.  Since then I’ve seen gorgeous British Racing Green, Deep Red and White.  My wife’s MG (the one that she totaled) was white with a racing stripe.  That car was a beauty but my memory may be influenced by remembering her in the car with the top down and her hair flowing back from the wind.

I found a 1980 Midget that looks exactly like mine when I bought it.  It is David Gilberts and I have no way of contacting him .  So there is a problem with me posting this picture let me know and I’ll delete it.  In the meantime go HERE and check out his MG with his wife's MGF VVC

I like the look of it and I seldom see midgets that are russet brown.  That’s the way I’m leaning right now.  Let me know what you think.
