MGB Rebuild instructions?
Discussion
I am about to start bolting all my restored bits onto a heritage shell.
I have the haynes manual and restoration manual, also, the book Practical classics did on a restoration.
Just before I start the work, are there any good blogs or videos out there which have a good critical path thought out, e.g.. engine in AFTER front axle? I know it is not rocket science but I have been known to get things in the wrong order!!
Cheers
