about 15 years ago maybe a few more than that we were living in Port Orange FL, just outside of Daytona. we were living in this suburbs looking area where all the houses were the same just different colors. My dad this old but in good shape 71/72 MGB roadster (one of the last ones with the metal bumpers). he bought the car to fix it up and mechanically it was all sound next phase was a paint job and later a newer top. well we had some kids next door a teen girl and a pre teen boy both where into athletics and one of them (or one of their friends we still do not know for sure) hit a baseball over our house and it struck the front windshield of the MG, putting a huge round spider web of cracks. now MGB windows are hard to replace and are expensive cause of the age of the car. my dad ended up selling the car cause he just did not have the fundage to replace the glass, AND paint, and replace the top. boy was he pissed cause normally he had it parked in the 2 car garage.
