"Original MGA", by Anders Clausager
A very good book but out of print and hard to find is:
"The A-Antics Tech Tips" Published by the MIchigan Chapter of the
North American MGA Register (NAMGAR).
Other helpful books have been put out by:
Todd Clark of Clark Spares
John Twist of University Motors
"MGA History and Restoration Guide" by Bob Vitrikas
Stay on this list and ask questions.

That's the critical part for a deluxe. To veryify that the car
was built that way, get a copy of it's build specifications. An
application and link can be found at the NAMGAR site written at
the top of this message.
