    Default 51 MG restoration.

    Figured I’d start a thread to avoid flooding the Classic car thread with this project.
    Got her home today.

    Already got the fuel pump working, bad ground. But the fuel smells like shellac so draining everything and starting fresh before I try to get her started.

    Brakes come off next. Only been 20 years since my last drum brake job.

    So far, all electrical checks out but brake lights and heater, which it has. Choke is seized as well. Parking brake cable barely moved so I didn’t force it.

    Need better light in the garage now.
    Time to buy some led strips..
    Cheers.
