Hello, I'm a new member living near philadelphia in the western suburbs. I found the British Car club recently after my mechanic retired and I became more desperate for some help and information. I've had my June '74 MGB since 1975 when I purchased it as the 2nd owner. It was factory painted aconite (Purple). I finally had to store it when I was in college, thought about giving it up for sale, but had it (roughly) restored (a mediocre commercial job - at best) and painted Brookland green. Overall it runs pretty well, but it's now leaking a bit from several places. 1) Can someone point me to where I can purchase an overdrive gear shaft oil seal (Parts #59 and/or #60?) in the Roadster Factory spare parts catalogue. (As we know the Factory burned down at Christmas time - I gave to the go fundme and hope it returns!). 2) Optimally I'm looking for a place (anywhere in the US) that would teach and work with me (as largely unskilled labor) to repair/restore the car. It also needs a new paint job with better body work than the last 'restoration.' If not, then a honest, skilled MGB mechanic in the Philadelphia suburbs. Attached are a photo of the car in our local parade, and some photos this week from a local mechanic (who doesn't really work on MGs) with the other repairs he feels it needs - so I need parts for those repairs too. Thanks in advance for your help!
