Okay, so it's an MGB GT - but I found this video series a lot of fun, and I could relate to the guy - his workspace is like my own - almost non-existent! ;-)

Check out his You Tube page
 
cool - though looking at that garage a Midget would have made a ton more sense.
 
.....He had room for his a$$, and a gallon of gas........
 
The will of the shadetree mechanic, hard to defeat a determined restorer.

I've restored cars out on the driveway, no shelter, all kinds of weather.

I'll bet I'm not the only one here . . . once it gets into your blood, you'll do anything to finish the resto job. :yesnod:

That's what I enjoyed so much about watching this guy's progress. I'll often tell myself that there's no way I can do this or that given my very modest space, but now I can no longer in earnest make such defeatist statements! :banana: Time to buy that welder and ... practice.

Ah, yes, the young man from Boston. Been a while since I've thought of that little limerick!
 
And if you haven't seen it before, check out the Wreck Rescue Frogeye episode, also available on YouTube.....very inspirational!
 
Frogeye resto - wow!
