In this episode of our 1979 MGB Roadster budget restoration, we take a full look back at all the major rust repairs and metal fabrication done to save this classic car! Instead of spending thousands on brand-new replacement panels, we took on the challenge of hand-fabricating repair sections using simple garage tools, cut-and-butt welding, and smart budget repairs.
From rotten doors and outer sills to floors, quarter panels, chrome bumper conversion modifications, and hidden scuttle gutter rot, here is a complete recap of how much rusty metal had to be cut out and rebuilt.
Whether you are tackling your own MGB project, learning DIY auto body repair and MIG welding, or love classic British car restorations, we hope this guide gives you tips and encouragement for your own garage build!
