Put a bunch of batteries on charge. Need to clean out the garage at my grandmother's place and move the cars around on Saturday; which means starting 5 old cars that haven't been touched in at least a year....My MGB & Camaro, plus some other stuff owned by my parents and brother. Usually the process goes smoothly, but all it takes is one pissed off car to ruin the day. It's also sort of a sad reminder that yet another year has past and I haven't done anything with those 2 cars
Got her done. With 3 of us hustling we got all the cars out, garage cleaned and everything re-parked for the winter in the one day. I even had time to take my MGB (the blue one) and the Camaro for a few good runs around the neighborhood. Wasn't without trouble though; 2 of the 3 MGB's (the white one - not pictured had been out all summer, so no issues) and the Camaro had stuck carburetor floats from sketchy gas. Little tapping on the bowls solved the issue; we've been religious with using stabilizer and switching out the gas, but clearly these 3 cars need to be drained and flushed next year
The other hiccup was the only side terminal battery we had turned out to have a broken terminal, so it wouldn't connect up in the Camaro. Found an old top post conversion kit lying around and was able to use that to jerry-rig it for the day.
New parking arrangement has the Camaro more accessible, so I am going to force myself to do something with it in the Spring...
Wish I took more pics, but it's tricky when you're trying to get stuff done.

I thought this was a cool shot, two "modern" MG's and a project MGTD my dad's working on.
