MG MGA - Funny picture, In my lap

Hi folks. My friend called me to help pull his MG engine. We ran into a few snags, but got the engine out OK, after a bit of a fight. Here is a picture of me that was taken when the engine removal process required some thought. lol, enjoy! Glenn

Heck, leave out the engine and add some bike pedals and your all set.

Mebbe you ought to supply the thought before you get to that point?

I trust you drained the engine oil first.

What is red and and throbs between your legs?

I know some of you guys out there really dislike anyone modifying their MGAs away from the original but some DPO has drastically modified my car Glenn.

Im almost too embarrassed to admit this but they have put controls ACTUALLY inside the car so that unlike yourself I can operate the throttle, brakes, clutch and steering from INSIDE the car!
It gets worse, they have even fitted a SEAT INSIDE the car to make it comfortable!

Does this make me less of a man? Do I need councelling?

I would like to ask you a few things about the car if you dont mind.

1 Can you tell me if it will be very difficult and expensive to change my car back to your original specification?

2 Are you smiling in the picture or is your expression caused by a combination of bugs in your eyes and engine fumes?

3 Exactly how far can you drive before your trousers catch fire on the exhaust pipe?

I eagerly await your reply!

I'd change the clutch and pressure plate - the current one looks rough! How did you get in there - from underneath the car?

And I can barely get into the passenger compartment with the top up!
