Good morning! Could you share with me the schematics and how you wired the Deutsch Connectors for the MGB Build? Thank you!

Steve. Great content. Would like to see your wiring info on website. Could you approve me please? Have binged all the "B" series. Nicely done! On to the Mini!

Great work, Steve - always an enjoyable watch...

Hi Steve, Happy New Year to you and yours, as usual next level, always something to aspire to. Keep up the good work, looking great. Cheers Marty.

Nice job mate

Hi Steve, I really like your videos and seeing your skill in the shop. I have an MGB that I need help with and the series on your car really help. Can you approve my subscription request to your Facebook page on the MGB? I would like to download some of your wiring info. Thanks! The Mini is looking beautiful by the way.

Just watching the series now! Fantastic. I'm just starting my journey and will eatch your vids for reference. Thanks for posting them.

Nice colour choice.

Usual quality Steve, great standard of work.

That’s looking awesome. Usually I don’t like yellow cars, but that color combo you are going for is sweet!

Nice work Steve - can't wait for next month!

CAD - cardboard aided design 🤣

I'm looking to purchase have an mgb for restoration and you, sir, have the best series on youtube. Well done!

Hey Steve, I’m about to start a similar project and was wondering if you would share your electrical diagrams.

Fantastic job! Well done.

You are brave leaving the MG in the garage with that Tesla they are prone to burst into flames.

How did you make the counsel? I have to make one in my BGT.

Stunning job.

Recessed grill and rubber faced over-riders dates this to 1970/71 (mine was a UK registered 1971 roadster). Stunning restoration; certainly far better than when it came off the original assembly line!

A year later, but... Most cars have their instrument lights on the same fuse as tail lights. Lets the operator know that they don;t have rear lights.

Hi Steve, I have very much enjoyed your MGB Resto and now the MINI, can you please let me know the cost of dipping the MG and MINI, I’m on the lookout for a MINI also, much appreciated 👍

Ahhhh Engine, nice....... I couldn't find the gearbox rebuild video, must be in there somewhere. Steve, I think the bottom alternator bracket is on upside down, the arc follows the direction of tensioning. HT starter, great stuff, done the same, I went with the 123-ignition dizzy, same same I suspect, not programable. Love the red block, looks really good, my block was black as standard on the B. Bodywork looks awesome, you've got me on that one, that is where the art of delegation comes in. You really excel in this area real respect for your craftsman work approach and ethic. Keep up the great work. Cheers Marty

The reason why your heater box area had rusted out is probably due to the rubber funnel that MG fitted to the base of the chamber below the chrome grill forward of the windscreen (behind the heater unit). The rubber funnel was there to drain the rain, but it clogged up in time with debris, dirt, leaves etc blocking the drainage, causing rust and in some cases flooding in the car. This flooding issue due to a blocked drain funnel affected me in the 1980s in my 67 GT in a heavy rain storm. When I investigated I found the drainage funnel was totally blocked with muck. I simply cut off the bottom of the rubber drainage funnel (allowing more free drainage) and cleaned out the debris. Problem solved. I've since bought back this very same GT after 36 years by chance in Australia - there are no issues (with the chamber) and it is still in lovely condition after all these years, testament to its 4 owners since I sold it in 1988.

She looks stunning! Well done that man. Good tip re future bonnet positioning with the two stainless steel rods in the brackets etc... but I noticed at 4:17 the front view of the car, the stainless steel strip on the leading edge of the bonnet doesn't line up with the corresponding strips on each front wing, yet the bonnet seems flush.

in 1980 when I re-shelled the MGB Roadster bodyshell with a brand new factory shell (in primer) I gave the shell a close examination and found the ''hidden'' factory stamping of the chassis number on one of the rear body rails, I made a record of exactly where is was located, I am told the factory varied the position for security reasons. Knowing exactly where the chassis number was stamped turned out to be useful, as in those days rebuilds were examined by a police vehicle inspector, who actually did check the '''hidden'' chassis number before signing off on the car.

Usual quality Steve, great progress. Looking forward to seeing further progress. Braver man than I taking on the gearbox, I just remember this job being really fiddly.

My 1967 Mini Traveller sends her best wishes

Thanks for the video. Very helpful and educational.

Awesome work Steve

I found that getting the socket out afterwards was the difficult bit. I put a bolt inside the socket pushed the rubber on by hand and then pulled on the bolt to get the socket out. It wasn’t easy but doable on your back with the car jacked up & the axle on the car.

Well Steve when it comes to bodywork you are a better man than I. I would have been reduced to tears. Brings back so many memories of working on Minis back in my youth, nothing has changed. I know it will look brilliant when it’s finished. Looking forward to the next episode. Great vid.

Since I watched Pt 3 first some of your thoughts in this Pt 1 have proven to be less favourable 😊

Some one did the old "cave and pave"

Loving your series Steve. Motivating me to crack on with my MGB project (in the UK).

Well Steve you certainly have got your work "cut out" for you, wishing you the very best of luck with that little lot. On my old MG I had in the UK we leaded up small holes in the wings similar to what you have, not sure about leading 40 off years on. The boot area definitely looks challenging. Bodywork is not my forte I tend to "farm that out", I'm more biased towards the mechanical stuff. That dipping is certainly quicker and a lot less dusty than a wire brush :).

This looks like quite the project.. I look forward to the job you will do. Your high standards and that body shell will be a really nice combination

Good grief you certainly picked a roughy....Next you be onto a WW2 fighter lost for 80 years in a swap!

Well done Sir,Fantastic Restoration, one of the best I've seen learned a lot, enjoy and be safe 👏 👏

The side marker/indicator lamps are on backwards!

Good on ya Steve, good progress as usual. You definitely are next level, wish I had a dipping facility near me looks like the way to go. As long as you keep going like you are I have something to aspire to. All the very best for Christmas and the New Year. Catch you in the new year no doubt...........

Great progress Steve... i've been hoping for an update mate!

Hi Steve ..is there any chance I can have a copy of your brilliant new MGB wiring diagram you made...Im also trying to make up the fuse panel you did too and would love to know what goes where. Thanks

I am in the process of restoring a 1965 roadster, so I have just completed watching your entire series. I want to thank for sharing and tell you that your work is really splendid. I will shamelessly steal ideas from you but I'll always credit you! Thanks again. Kirby from the USA.

Awesome! Thank you for doing another great restoration! After the Mini do a Landy!

Dad owned a 62 in the 60s. My brother and I were little kids, so we could fit in the back! I have great memories of it. Love your videos and your projects! Excited to follow this one. Matt, Ohio, USA.

My first car was a 1964 Mini Cooper 997cc, disc brakes, bought in 1968 ,P plate and all, wrote it off few weeks later, next Mini was a Mk 2 Mini Cooper s 1970 model.Great little cars, should have kept it

Nice - another rebuild to follow. You know if you get past 4 cars, you become a hoarder, LOL.

So here you go again, good on ya Steve. Yeap my first car was a mini, I also worked at a BMC garage for a few years, you are a braver man than I am, front end is just a bit to compact for me. Check out Project Binky for a few ideas. Good luck and I’ll be following your progress with interest.

Steve - such a great sequel project! I've owned several minis and currently an MGB so i'm right there with you mate, step by step. Keep the updates coming - i'm sure your Cooper will be amazing.
