Can't help with the numbers but it looks like a great project... Compared to my Sprite, it only needs a wipe with an oily rag.

Hi Dazdawn
I may be breaking an MGB GT, if you need any bits, its complete, includes some new carbs (done 1500 miles) and and a little used stainless steel exhaust.

Hi
Unless my memory is playing tricks , there are 4 bolts per hinge which you get at from the door side of the A pillar. Or you can remove the door from the hinge, I think there are 2 bolts per hinge, you will need to remove the trim etc if you do it this way.

Here are a couple of the latest pictures. Any advice on what to paint underneath the car to cure the rust and preserve?

| Hi Daz Dawn, by now I guess you are getting on with your project, any update? By the way, what did you mean when you said "what does the overdrive do on an MG?" - The overdrive is pretty straight forward, but what's your question? Rgds Rich... |
