... lotta fun to drive. Then I bought a new red '67 MGB GT and got serious about tricking it out. '67 was the last year that cars sold in this country were allowed to have knock-off spinners on wire wheels, or any rims, for that matter. Congress, in their infinite wisdom, also banned covered headlights, as on the Jaguar XK-E. Two totally asinine laws. If a pedestrian is close enough to a moving vehicle to be endangered by spinners, then they've already got far more pressing problems! And now, nearly all cars have covered headlights.
To this day, I regret selling that MGB. But in '67 I was an impetuous 20-year-old, and that was only one of many dumb-ass, spur-of-the-moment decisions.
