think my heart just stopped when then engine slipped like that....I've followed this blog and really enjoying it, great work. I think after all this I'd be as gutted as you if you damaged it now...!
Thanks for your comment. I have now driven the car. Yes after 1 year of re-building the engine it's moving. Now I have started to srtip the front suspension down to rebuild. So again I am stuck in my garage.
Hi Terry, Loving the videos mate, not far from your goal nom mate! I've got to get going on my MG's this year, 1972 chrome bumper Roadster, 1974 chrome bumper GT and possibly my 1978 rubber bumper Roadster! You have given me some inspiration! Keep it up matey! Jason
Thanks for your comments I have been it now for over 3 years, problem is time. When working full time, after work and during the weekends biting and bobbing. Now the cold winter we are having is slowing me down. Getting me down so near yet so far, just need to get on with the work. How on earth are you going to find the time to work on 3 MGs ? Good luck.
Hi Terry, the rubber bumper roadster is in need of a re-shell, the 72 roadster needs an engine swap and minor bodywork, not too bad, but the GT is my baby, thats getting the full monty restoration! Chin up mate, been there, done that, but dont give up! Cant wait to see it finished, even if its another 12 months, you will get there! Regards, Jason
I have booked aload of holidays until April, i.e Friday and a Monday to give me long weekends. Plan is get the Engine running within 4 weeks and will upload another blog of the engine first start. Thats the plan. Looks like you are going to busy during the year.
