Thoroughly enjoyed the Magnificient Machines programme. Speechless about the earlier MGBGT rebuild fiasco.

Hmmm. I watched the one on MGB GT restoration. Very dissapointed - thought it a joke. Suddenly a complete rust bucket turned into a shining car, hardly showing what was done.
If only it was that easy. It did make me laugh that in a complete restoration they made such a fuss over changing the rocker cover!

.......and the "2 innovative horizontal straps" that were the rear springs!

I forgot about those innovative straps. The only thing worthwhile about that programme was to see what a nice guy Peter Edney seems to be.

Yes I agree about Peter Edney. I wish MGA spares were as cheap as those MGB spares he sold! Nice workshop setup. His dad was a big name in T-Type racing.

Hi Graham
Yes Peter is a nice guy- He fitted my 5 speed box to the MGA -knowledgable and not expensive
