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.
