Tech Tips: Spring 1990

“Pull Cable” Makes Life Easier Bob Muenchausen Boise, ID (“Why didn’t I think of that?”…might be your reaction to this common sense idea! —Ed) When replacing the choke cable or any loose hose or wire that is threaded through some maze of mechanical/electrical clutter, an easy way to rethread the new piece through is to…

The Club Scene – Winter, 1991

Safely back home in California, now seems a good time to reflect upon our traveling Moss Road Show this past summer. Over 18,000 miles saw us attending 19 different British car oriented events, bearing the Moss message that we really care about keeping your classic going strong because that’s all we do! As we last…

The Club Scene – Summer 1991

By now the summer season is well under way, but I would like to start this column by taking care of a little bit of business which consumed a great deal of time last winter! I refer, of course, to the 1990 Moss Journalism Awards, and what a terrific selection of club publications our judges had…

First U.S. Report On a “New” MGB Using a Body Shell

Deciding to take on a project such as building a “new” MGB out of the combination of a new body and the stationary hulk of my 1969 MGB never can make any real sense (other than emotionally) when one has a family to raise, a business to run, a race car to maintain and campaign (lack…

Two-Week Moss Europe Sports Car Odyssey

In our last issue, we gave you some idea of what to try and see should you be able to travel to England this past spring, and we received many inquiries for further information on visiting the U.K. However, there’s nothing like actually being there, and I was fortunate enough to experience British hospitality first…

At Full Chat : MG Again at the Mille Miglia

Dear Howard, I guess that five trips to Italy in as many years to cover the Mille Miglia retrospective qualifies YT as a “junkie”. I admit having become an addict. Our report to you on last years trip touched on a number of British marques that we came across in our travels through Italy. This…

MG YT, A Very Special Sports Car

Back in 1949 we were living in a suburb of Chicago, however I frequently went to New York city on business. Our family car was a Crosley sedan-yes that’s right- tin and cardboard with a brazed steel engine! We were however looking for a better car and eyed Singers, Morris’s, Morgans, Hillmans, Sunbeams, and of course…

Origins of the MG Car Company

In the Fall 1993 issue of Moss Motoring we introduced Doug who is a long time MG enthusiast,and we began a series of articles on the history and development of the MG motor car from its earliest days. When we last left Doug he had just introduced us to a young chap called Cecil Kimber, known…

In Memoriam: MG Enthusiast, Paul Johnson

Paul Johnson, of Cleveland Ohio and friend of the Moss Motors family for many years, passed away peacefully on October 24th at the age of 66. Paul exemplified the spirit of the true vintage sports car enthusiast by driving his TC and TD perhaps hundreds of thousands of miles all over the continental U.S. and Canada….

Through the Windscreen – Summer 1994

“Hi de Ho good neighbors”- as Wilson would say! And if you don’t know what I’m talking about you probably don’t watch one of the funniest shows on television – Home Improvement on ABC. In this series Tim Allen plays a do-it-yourself type of guy who has his own TV show on the subject. Hence…
