[Mgs] MGA Rebuild

[rcateb at comcast.net (Bob and Trish)]

Congrats on your building dedication to restore your A.  I have a 60 A
roadster with my restoration lasting
8 years-a labor of love and perfection.  I pulled the body tub off the
frame-not overwheming provided your reinforce the body
tub at the door openings and/or top of cockpit.  The body rested on a home
built 2X4 rack with dolly wheels.
My frame was blasted and covered with Imron.  The body was
dip striped and 90% of the original fastenings were striped and replated.
With the crop of digital cameras and
cheap dig photos take pics of everything and bag parts with detailed labels
and photos.
Do not let your aluminum panels-doors, bonnet, trunk lid out of your garage as
blasting or heavy stripping will
probably warp the panels.
Happy to provide more insight if desired.
