Is it sacrilegious to install cruise control in an MG?
Canceled tech session in Prior Lake.
I’m sorry to say the tech session is postponed. Shoveling off the house roof vents allowing the attic to breathe, then coming down the ladder it slid out. Either seconds or 30-40 minutes later I had gotten myself to bed for a warm place to bleed.
When Becky found me she packed me up to hospital where they told me gravity won and I’ve put a crack in my L1. So under doctors and wife orders no bending over cars for awhile.
I hope to see you on the road soon.
Cheers,
Gene
Ever wonder how hard it is to install a cruise control? Wonder no more while you watch a 1979 MGB cruise install. The Candidate, one of the Cooper’s car needs this upgrade. Starting about 9a the plan is to discuss the pro's and con's. Stop by to help, watch, or question why.
We will install a cruise control into a late model MGB. Lots of opinions, but for long trips I am in the install camp. Following the “as long as you’re in there” we are also looking at shortening the gas pedal. Helpful for longer legged folks with a late model MGB. Easier than adding an overdrive this is a great modification for those long drives before installing a cruise.
Weather may not allow a proper road test but the hard work will be done. The good news is we now have heat in the shop.
Coffee and sweets will be available. Please RSVP if you plan on attending.
Some homework if you have thought about installing one.
