[AT] OT--Where's reverse on an MGB??--Varied results!

[John Wilkens]

Congratulations Warren!  So far you are the only expert that got it 
right!...Left hard and down.  Many "interesting" suggestions and 
comments about "those little British cars" from the others! 
.....mostly accurate.   Thanks again all.  I got the car moved...even 
took it for a spin with its bored engine, performance cam and (loud) 
dual exhaust.      John W.
