What a Pair !

Shammy63 · 7th April 2023, 16:17

First time due to the weather that I have been able to get them both out together.

Raven Black · 8th April 2023, 19:27

What a beautiful pair too. Lucky you, what year is your B?

Hi Raven,

The MGB is 1977 and very original, even down to the orange deckchair pattern seats. I bought the B around 4 years ago and the ZT back in January of this year from Norbury Brook ( Marcus) and have gradually been getting her back to her former glory. Not that she needs much, it is bits and pieces of bodywork mostly.

Very nice,they look to be from the same era in the pic.The B is aging well

Must be something about car enthusiasts having cars in pairs...I've a ZT and tomcat as well, who else has two and what are they? Agreed though, a lovely pair shammy!

There's something about the Tomcat which just looks right to me. This is my two:

I have a Pair of show cars. Here is my Tomcat (Tina) going round the bowl at Millbrook for the 30th anniversary of the tomcat affair.

And the 1st production ZT V8. (Millie)

The pair together with 'Just Jane'

And finally my daily. (Meg)

While Tina and Millie have big grin factors, Meg is the only one that puts a smile on my face every single time I take her out.

Sorry for the delay in replying, been away for a couple of weeks.

Just love the shape of the Tomcats, have thought about one a couple of times but never taken the plunge.

Love the pictures with Just Jane, I have a Taxy ride in her booked in June. not yet decided if I travel up in the MGB Roadster or the ZT. A lot depends on the weather.

It's great to see the different types of pairs we can have, maybe I could persuade the other half to go for the triple and add a Tomcat to the stable.
