William T Gholson, an auto parts distributor living in San Antonio, Texas, loves cars. He recently began working on a 1966 MGB roadster in preparation for a long road trip across the United States with his wife. He still has a large amount of work to do. The roadster isn’t ready for a long, grueling road trip, even after ten years.

Gholson says he doesn’t mind taking a long time. He’d like to take the trip after his eldest child, Barry, is out of high school. He also has a daughter in the fifth grade, but she can stay with friends, he says. He enjoys working on his cars, a passion that began in high school, when he bought a 1965 Ford Falcon from his neighbors and restored it to its former glory. He ended up driving the car for twelve years, and even proposed to his wife Jean, in that car.

William T Gholson still doesn’t know exactly where they’ll go. “Whatever we end up doing, we’ll be traveling light,” says Gholson. “There isn’t a lot of extra room in an MBG.” He says that they will have to fasten only a couple small suitcases on the back rack of the car, with little room for much else, which is fine with him.

Over a decade of work has mostly restored the engine to working order, although, ever the perfectionist, Gholson says it could be better. The MGB also needs a new paint job and new upholstery. He has replaced or overhauled many of its engine parts already, and says, modestly, “It runs okay.”
Of his preliminary plans, William T Gholson says that they’ll head towards New Orleans, and after that, “who knows?” One thing is for sure: when the MGB is deemed ready by master auto part expert William T Gholson, it will be ready for anything.
