Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Resource!
This book gives a great overview of all the potential "opportunities" in restoring an MGB> a "must have" book.

This book has been around for a good 15 years and is still one of the best on the topic of MGB restoration. The only flaw, and its a big one is that a lot of the photos are horrible; dark and hard to make out.

Nevertheless, its still the best book of its kind. What I would like to seel is three or four more complete books covering separate phases of restoration in greater detail. Also, more coverage of the difference between different years would be great.
