Choosing the Right Project Серия 1

Mark Evans embarks on a brand new project, aiming to transform a 1973 Chrome-bumpered MGB Roadster from an unloved rust-bucket into a pristine classic car. In the first programme Mark tracks down a suitable car for restoration in an old chicken shed in Surrey. The deal done, it's back to his workshop to start the strip down.

Repairing the Shell Серия 4

With the body of Mark's MGB back from the bead blasters, it's easy to see how much restoration work is now needed. New wings are fitted and a new steering rack fitted to the body. Mark also visits a specialist engineering company who are refurbishing the over-drive unit to find out just how it works.

Shaft Work Серия 5

More metalwork as Mark repairs the shell and fits new panels. It's a long hard slog. Meanwhile the engine is being overhauled with a rebore. By the end of the programme the engine is rebuilt and the shell has had its first coat of paint. Phew!

Upgrading the Heater Серия 7

Mark fits a new heater, but it's not without its problems. The pedal box is fitted and the clutch master cylinder is overhauled. Whilst Pete prepares the wheels for spraying Mark and Les continue to fit the braking system. The handbrake causes a few head scratching moments and Les gets to use the new lathe to skim the brake drums. Finally some paint is applied to the wheels.

Seating Arrangements Серия 8

Mark strips down his seats, door panels and centre console and takes their bare bones to the seat surgeons, Yvonne, Sandra and Ellen for re-covering in luxurious red leather. Mark fits the quarter lights and winding windows to the doors - an easy job turns into a nightmare. It only gets worse when he tries to fit the new windscreen. Then it's on to the hood frame and the new mohair hood amazingly fitting uses the same principles as a face lift.

Rebuilding the Fueling System Серия 9

We find Mark glass bead blasting the engine inlet manifold - gorgeous. He goes on to fit it together with the new custom-made, ceramic coated,stainless steel, tubular exhaust headers. But there's a problem with the rest of the exhaust. After some head scratching a solution is found. A quick tip on how to make your own gaskets is followed by the complete rebuild of the fuel pump. Mark converts it to electronic operation. Three hours are wasted when Mark accidentally trashes the gleaming radiator that he has just finished refurbishing. But another is substituted and the race is on to get the engine plumbed, fuelled and wired for its first fire up before the end of the show.

Mark is behind schedule so it's a frantic sprint for the finish - he has all the lights and shiny bits to fit as well as the boot, bonnet and badges. Finally the MGB sees the light of day - and it's a beauty!

Mark Evans is back in his workshop to restore a 1973 MGB Roadster back to Showroom in condition in this episode of the popular Discovery Real Time TV series. It's one of the last chrome-bumpered cars ever built, and Mark intends to turn it into a unique collector's item. Follow the world's best-loved amateur mechanic as he strips the MG down to every last nut and bolt, and painstakingly rebuilds it from the ground up. An MG is Born is a unique piece of MG history - the first TV documentary of its kind dedicated to the MGB - and almost certainly the last. This is a fascinating and detailed insight into the engineering, design and restoration of one of the world's most popular and well-known sports cars, and is a fantastic reference tool for existing or would-be MGB restorers.
