A little bit about myself ...
Owner of '67 MGB in bits. *Update* Many more bits now and more to come! *Update2* Lots more bits and now on Rotisserie. *Update3* Started the way back has revamped front and rear suspension and is back on the ground. *Update* Pretty sure now car is a '66. *Update4* Did complete motor rebuild and it's in and running. Now working on the interior and the body. *Update5* Now road registered and able to be driven - still lots of cosmetic issues, however.

| Not Quite The Bargain I Thought. | 2008-11-22 | Seems the bearings I got were the wrong ones and the correct ones are not available in the cheaper version. So $100 odd later I got the right bearings and they went in today... | ||
| PVC Glove Box | 2008-11-14 | Remember this! Well, I've kind-of given up on this - too much stuffing around. There's one on Ebay from the guy? I got the fuel tank from. I think I might ju... | ||
| Noise From Rear End. | 2008-11-14 | This is close to the text I put as a question on the forum: I've only put less than 100 mls on the car since the rebuilt and when it came to the rear end, I pulled i... | ||

| Parking Brake And The Wrong Springs | 2008-10-18 | 2 | Pulled a rear wheel to see 'what's-what' with the hand brake. Basically I can't get enough adjustment on the hand brake lever and the lever is all the way up before it holds... | |
| Side Mirror | 2008-10-15 | 2 | Few weeks ago, during the school holidays and on the way to visit the in-laws, we called in at Heritage MG and I bought a new side mirror. I intended to get the 'bullet' style but ... | |
| Speedo Refresh And LED Dash Lights. | 2008-09-10 | The speedo was pretty much the last important thing to sort out and I ended up pulling it and disassembling it. Was all gunked up with hardened grease. While it was out I th... | ||
| Death Of A Friend | 2008-09-10 | 4 | Peter died early last week and I'm struggling coming to terms with it. A few days ago I wouldn't have been able to write this but I'm getting a little better. The funeral wa... |
