About this ebook
The advertisement said it would be easy to construct a car resembling a 1952 MGTD. My brother, Tony, cautioned me that it would be hard to do than it had been advertised. I purchased the parts and tried anyway. I would not have actually made the car you see on the cover of this story if it hadn't been for the help I received from an employee of the shop where Eliza worked.
