1958 MGA

This MGA was purchased by my brother in 1975. It was red when we got it but I found out severals years later (like maybe 20) that the original color was tryolite green. I have read that the first three MGA's off the production line were this color. It's hard to get a good idea just what this color looks like in pictures because of the blue/green combination. The other colors that my car was painted were white and black. I will try to find some pictures of when we first got the car and scan them in to post. The car was in one piece at one time but the more I dug into it the more I saw wrong with it. The longer I had it the more I wanted to correct the botched repairs and neglect. Now well I don't think it can take it apart anymore. This disassembly was over years (decades really) and I learned later the body should not be removed from the frame before repairs are made to keep door alignment problems to a minimum. Oh well. After many false starts over the years (decades) I am really getting things done to the MG. I have hated it, despised it, wished it would be gone when I got home from work but I could never bring my self to get rid of the dam thing. So the journey begins.
