Back in April of this year of 2012 I wrote a blog about owning my first car. I loved it, and have found since that many others can recall their first car with vivid details. Several have either written comments on this blog site, or emails describing that same attachment I had.
Now here’s the deal. Maybe 20 years ago I purchased an MG Midget convertible from a friend of mine here in Northern New York. I recall that he bought it a few years prior, maybe 25 years ago, in the Boston, Massachusetts area. The automobile has not had the engine started in at least ten years, but it is complete and restorable.
Details are fuzzy now, but in some manner I learned that it had once belonged to a college girl that drove it from the Boston area to her college in another state. It was probably her first car, but I don’t know that. I do not know her name. I do not know her address. I do not know her phone number. I know no way to contact her, and if I did she would probably think I had a screw loose.
However if she were to contact me with proof that she once owned this car, and wished to own it again, I would consider a reasonable offer. Other than that the car is not for sale. I have it stored in an old barn on my property, and that is where it will remain for the few years I have left.
