When I was your age I had sports cars that I could afford to buy and keep because I was the second or third owner. Some of them were from the 1950s to give you some perspective. Basic insurance and I did my own repairs and junk yards were still a resource to rely on. Then I got to buying cars that I could afford to buy, but did not give much thought into what it cost to keep it on the road. Don’t make that mistake. But, get out a pencil and paper and run the numbers. If you can make it work, do it. I will always have those memories of those MGs, Austin Healeys, Mini Coopers and all my friends from that time as we helped each other to keep them running. Coulda, woulda and shoulda is a big pile of regret 50 years from now.
