Many people have called me insane for attempting to restore this car, however they often fail to realise that the MG following is quite large: parts are easily available and quite cheap, numerous books and manuals have been written, and there is an extremely large fan base ready and willing to help (generally for free).
One of my references before I do any work is University Motors, that has an online database of videos on how to do things on MGs (B's mostly, but also some rarer models). I've checked out their videos on Youtube on several occasions and used them to find parts on the B. The videos are good for getting a rough idea on what to do - Mr Twist tends to go over things a bit quickly and the video quality isn't always that great - but can be invaluable if you don't know how to find top dead centre, start your car from under the hood, or even put the top down the right way. Occasiaonally they also show videos of strange problems, such as one where one of the shocks froze.
Check it out for some immediate help (that you can even access from your phone while working on the car, if necessary).
