When we brought the car home, it would run, but would not move. We had
to push it up on the trailer to get it here.

And push it up the hill of a driveway onto the lift.

Along with the Jag parts came many B parts.
|

Extra rims with very bad tires, an extra engine, extra windscreen, and
extra bumpers are just a few of the parts somewhere in the moving truck.
|

Fortunately, most of the boxes were labelled as B or Jag. The loose
parts are another story however.
|

Most of the B parts boxes found and organized. Yes, even an extra door
was included.

The tiny battery providing power to the car. Typical to British, the
car is positive ground. That makes adding aftermarket goodies - like
a radio - very tricky.

Step 1 is to find out why the car won't move under it's own power.
To do that, we have to pull the engine. The consensus was a clutch or
transmission problem and anyone who has ever worked on an MG will tell
you the only way to drop the trani is to pull it out with the engine.
So, we prepped to pull the engine and transmission out.
