Guide to Purchase & D.I.Y. restoration of the MGB

Sadly, production of this great British sports car has now ceased after a life of almost twenty years. However, the enthusiasm for this model has never really waned and throughout the world there must be hundreds of thousands of MGB owners who are determined to renovate and maintain their cars to the very highest of standards. This book first gives the reader a basic history of the MGB and then tells the prospective buyer how to find a good example. Next come several sections dealing with the nitty-gritty of restoration, quite literally from the wheels upwards. Particular attention is given to bodywork repairs, the information supplied being sufficient to create a 'good as new' car from a basket case. Similar attention is paid to interior/upholstery/hood renovation and repair, whilst there are also sections on mechanical components, electrics, parts interchangeability and tuning/modification. The text is supported by over 600 illustrations, mostly of practical restoration. If you own an MGB, or are thinking of buying one, you really cannot afford to be without this book ...
