Greetings. I have a 1960 MGA and 1966(maybe) Frankencar, composed of a Triumph Spitfire Mk2 with a Triumph Herald engine and gearbox. I've had them sitting in a shed for over 15 years. Now that I am retired, I have some time to work on them. They will never be "restored, because I don't have the budget for that. However, I plan to make them drivable survivors. I just rebuilt the Spitfire's/Herald's gearbox, and learned quite a bit from online videos, in particular, "Rusty Beauties" and "Midwest Motoring."
My first Little British Car was a 1966 MGB - how I loved that car. I bought it in 1975 for $500 from a friend of my father's, plus an extra $50 for the wire wheel spare. One day, I found in the glove box a receipt for work that had been done: a rebuild of the clutch slave cylinder. The kit cost $3 and the labor was $18.50. I thought, " I can't afford to own this car, unless I learn how to fix it myself." In those days, "learning" was confined to the contents of my Floyd Clymer's manual, which came with the car. I learned how to replace points and condenser, set the timing, rebuild wheel and master cylinders. adjust the valve rockers, tune up the fuel pump, and other jobs. Ultimately, It rusted away from a combination of factors.
Well, that's probably more than you wanted to know.
Cheers!
