Saw in the Flagstaff paper a story about a splendidly crazy British fellow who's mostly accomplished a round-the-world trip -- in a 1977 MG Midget.  [thumbsup]

My favorite quote from the story:

"They said, 'Let's just understand this: you only speak English, you're not a mechanic, and you're taking a totally unsuitable car around the world,'" Locock recalled in an interview during the National Night Out in Page City Park.
