To everyone and their sister-in-law/brother-in-law:
Here is a list of books that I am using in the rebuild of my MGA MK11 Deluxe.
Sorry to bomb the list but I hope that this helps someone. I would recommend
them all. Even the littleist tidbit of information is worth the price of the
most expensive book on the list, and most will save you many $ and much time
in work.
