That's a project alright! I dig it, though!

With the time I have available each day, I am thinking it will take probably couple of years. It will be in Red color.

I've always wanted to restore and rebuild a car.

Your thinking is the same as mind. Just do it (don't care what other people will say). With this car, I have a collector plate and therefore, I don't have to pay an annual tab. However, I can only take it to car show or pleasure drive. Not daily driver.

Yesterday was a good day for me. Went to the Bellevue Auto repair to pick up my car. They did a great job with fixing the ding and matching the color. I can't tell the different.

Here are pictures of before and after.

Google moss motors and find a lot of parts for your MGB.

My brother just came back from Japan, and he is going to fix up his 72 Triumph Spitfire. I used to have no interest in that car back in the day, but older I get, it looks more fun. Everything is so mechanical, love it!!

One question is, it was sitting for so long, the clutch is stuck in to gear, and cannot get it out. Any good solutions? I think he is asking around on the Triumph forums as well..

The clutch is probably stuck to the flywheel.

If it has a hydrolytic clutch system the fluid may be low or leaked out.

You may try to bleed the system to see if you can get the clutch to release.
