Happy New Year!
I have had a 1960 MGA for a few years - nut haven't had the money nor the
time to tackle a rebuild.... but 2012 should allow some of both... so I am
wondering if anyone has a master-plan for a strip down to the frame and a
full rebuild?
I plan to have the engine tuned by professionals (with the crank-shaft
being balanced) and the bodywork and trim also done by professionals.
I would like to get down to the frame to have it powder coated and work
from there - but if anyone has a master plan that would be great! I do have
several MG A Books and did complete an MGB rebuild a number of years ago -
but that was easier because I started with a new shell which I had sprayed
then sat it side by side with the donor car.
For instance, some of the panels have small dings and dents... should I
take these off and get them prepared and painted before reassembly?
Should I take the engine out before I take the panels off?
Any advice gratefully received!
