Paul,
Welcome.  I have a 1957/8 MGA which I got running this winter and I  
recently had the front suspension rebuilt as I needed to replace my  
front dampers, one of which was leaking.

Michael Veys in Novato did a really excellent job.  I delivered him  
the king pin and links with drum attached.  He stripped, pressed in  
all the bushings, repainted and delivered it back looking as if it  
just came from Abingdon in 1958. All I had to do was fit the rebuilt  
dampers and put it all back on the car.  He charged me $365 (4 hrs)  
and I supplied the parts.

I has made an astonishing difference to the handling of the car.

Michael Veys 415-847-8870 Novato.
A Brit working almost exclusively on early British cars. Very  
responsive and a craftsman.
