A co worker of mine is going through a seperation w/the wife. Has a 58 MGA in
the garage he's going to have to dump, says he's never going to get around to
restoring it. He wants me to look at it and see if I can drum up a buyer
without going the eBay route. I don't know if I'm personally interested in it
or not, the Sprite isn't even done yet. Possibly if it were something cool
(Twin Cam? He doesn't know if it is or not, big question mark right now) maybe
I could buy it and store it to work on later.
Mainly I want to know going in, what do I look for as far as condition
problems? With a Spridget for example, I know you look at the boxes the rear
springs mount to (on a 1/4 elliptic model). What are the real problem areas to
watch for on an MGA? Car has been stored in a garage. Will report back to
interested parties if I don't want it, am bringing digital camera for pics.
