1958 MGA Restoration
This is the continuing story of the restoration of a '58 MGA Roadster. Purchased by my brother Dave in 1975 it was to be a quick fixer upper. It was in much worse shape than we thought and now 30 years later here we are. I almost sold it a couple of times but the potential buyers never showed. I'm glad now because this is something I have always wanted to do.

Working on front suspension. The brakes came out with no trouble but the link pins put up a good fight. the hub and bearing came out without any problems and I did not need a puller to remove. Parts were missing from the right hub though. The cotter pin for the spindle retaining nut, the washer that goes under the nut, and the grease retainer ( the half moon shaped piece of metal) were all missing.
