Just curious how much does a fully restored one go with carbon fiber panels, 10k on the eng., and a brand new paint job?? ALong with some new wheels and interior.

Carbon fibre panels?

You will find a new shell B for about £12k but it is like a new car so may depreciate. A V8 version £30k.

Depends what spec?

I did not know any one did carbon fiber panels for a B.
Any one know where you can get them from.
72 should be CB so if the paint is not covering rust then about 8 to 12K.
(MGV8) If any one wants to give me 30K for my car thay can have it!!!!

Must be Dash.

Be a long queue for carbon fibre panels.

Maclf01, given your location, I reckon you would be better posting this question on here:-www.mgcars.org.uk/mgb.html
as there are many contributors from the US on that site who could give you more accurate local pricing.

PS: If carbon fibre panels are available where you are, perhaps you will share with us where we could get some?

My dad knows a guy who makes carbon fiber bike parts. I'd be more then happy to sell some to you guys. (Problem though, i live in america) I won't be getting them for a while longer, maybe end of spring/ early summer time. Once i get them i will post pictures and you guys can decide if they are the right template for the door handles and everything.
