I figured this sub would enjoy the album I compiled of the restoration process of my split-bumper 1970 MGB GT

So I've posted this album in r/autos and r/littlebritishcars and both recommended that I post here: I hope you all enjoy. Most of the context, as per the sidebar request, is found within the album itself, however, here's a tl;dr for those of you who would just prefer to look at the pictures and skip the text (though I highly recommend reading it!)

My father purchased this MGB GT in December 2011 for $1000.00 and got another $1000.00 in parts for the car from a neighbor who was the original owner. A friend of his who restores cars for a living allowed us to use his garage and helped us with the restoration process. I spent the summer of 2011 working on the car and prepping it for the rotisserie restoration. I had to go back to college that fall, but remained active in the restoration process, choosing parts, paint colors, etc. The restoration was finalized and the car delivered to our home in Spring of '13. The Imgur album below is a few photos showing the restoration process; let me know what you all think!
