Hello. My father in law has a 1957 MGA that he drove off the delivery truck at the dealership where he worked. He also has a 1965 Morris Mini 850 pickup. He is 83 and unfortunately had a bad knee replacement and can’t work on the cars like he would like. I help him with some of the manual work he can’t do. His knowledge is invaluable. I do have some technical questions that he can’t always answer and it is always nice to have a resource if other knowledgeable enthusiasts. He has always wanted to put a 1275 in the pickup and I a trying to source the engine parts needed to help that happen. He can do some work on the bench and on an engine stand so I hope we can have a great project together. I have been reading all I can trying to learn all of the nuances (so many) of blocks, heads gearboxes etc. this forum has many informative topics but I’m sure I’ll have questions still.
