MGB bodywork recommendations

Post by Paul Dunt »

Hello, I've finally got some time to get my '63 MGB up and running again after being laid up for quite a while. It will definitely need some bodywork repairs - most probably sills and a new floor. I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for a good bodyshop in the Essex area of the UK that they had used?

Im in Essex and my bodywork reccommendation would be to get yourself a mig welder, a vice, a mole wrench and a cheap set of panel beating hammers and have a go yourself. :)
Taking the hands on approach will make you feel much more involved with your car plus you will know there arent any hidden bodges.
