Sentimental value is immeasurable!

Yes and I also took my wife on our first date in it too.

Have we seen a picture of you behiind the wheel of it? You're like 6'6", how on earth do you fit in it?
This is what I'm picturing you looked like on your way to pick up your date...

You are a funny man Matt. Actually it is the only 2 seat convertible I fit in including modern cars. If I ever put on 20-30lbs I won't fit.

Here is a picture of me taking my dog for a ride. She thinks it is her car. In the first picture she is staring at the ignition in anticipation of the engine starting.

She doesn't get to ride in Goldie.

Well looky there, you do fit! I had a '72 or 3 (I don't even remember now) TR6 for a minute and I remember feeling comfortable in it at 6'2".
I did really like that car and now that I think about it I sometimes feel like the seat doesn't go back far enough in my Challenger.

Nice color combo on that MG btw.

MGB and TR6: two of my favorite cars. My step father had a yellow TR6, 73 I think. Kept it in a garage where I worked. He never drove it but needed to keep the battery charged. So, for several years, I used to swap pretty freely between my truck and that car.

He sold it to buy a race car, I bought a motor home, and we were off to the vintage races!

Thanks for the memories, guys!

I could do another TR6, great body with that long hood and straight six.

I always like the TR6, but I really don't fit in them as well as the MGB. The MG has better handling than the TR6 and wth the addition of a 5 speed and supercharger it is much quicker now too.
