Very wise advice Duff.
I have a friend that almost gave up on his two MGB restorations. Thanks to
this group he was able to almost complete them. He is now in need of someone
who has a passion for rebuilding and installing the engines. They have been
sitting at a "friend's" house for over 7 years waiting for him to get the
time to restore them.
Anyone know a good machine shop and/or mechanic?
Sincerely,
David Sandberg

I hate to be a party pooper... but... Which is more important, grades or
the
car? In the $2.5-3 range, he will spend equal time working on it as driving
it! Get a Subaru or a VW, graduate, get a garage... then play with an old
car. If he gets burned out and pi**ed off to early he may never come back
to
the faith! As always IMO, FWIW. GGDuff

Subject: [Bmcu] Suggestions for rolling restoration
My son has $2500 to $3000 to spend on a car for college. He would like to
get something that he can do a "rolling restoration" on. I suggested MG
or
Triumph but I know very little about them. I have a Sunbeam Tiger but
they
are out of his price range. Depending on the year he really likes both of
these cars.
Suggestions, warnings, thoughts.
Thanks in advance,
Lynn
