I haven't watched this yet but I suspect I'll enjoy it so I'll just leave it here to remind me when I've got time.

I love the vintage traveller!
If only the car restorer always got the girl! Somehow not very likely, I think.

Having watched this last night I was then thinking what the modern day equivalents would be. The 'cad' would probably be in a M3 convertible, the rag and bone man would be driving a tatty old diesel Transit and the 40 year old car undergoing restoration would be a Marina rather than a bull nose Morris.

The best part is where he pushes the bare chassis to BP to get a wheel alignment!

Enjoyed that - we had a vacuum cleaner like that you could attach a spray gun to, it only got thrown out last month when it finally stopped working.

Thanks for that, I used to watch those BP films in the 60s during the school holidays, they used to be shown on BBC2 during the daytime as test transmissions. May still have my dads vacuum powered spraygun around, trouble with it being, dust from the hose would contaminate the finish.
