off their website;
"built remarkable vehicles for stars such as Jools Holland, Johnny Vegas, Martin Kemp, Lawrence Dallaglio and David Ginola."
I remember hitting that Martin Kemp "car" with a baseball bat at Santa Pod for charity - the car was crushed by Podzilla later that afternoon

Was it me or were they a complete pair of tools? I consider myself an expert bodger, but if I was let anywhere near an E Type resto I definitely wouldn't be using shock absorbers I'd found in the back of a Transit tipper.
Mind you I wouldn't be reversing it into an engine on a crane either.

I set it to record the series but I've cancelled it this morning. Highlights for me included "repairing a worn piston" and grinding curse word out of it stripping paint, beating the curse word out of it with a hammer, then trowelling on the filler. Quite why they were scavenging bits of old junk out of a backstreet garage's pile for the scrap man is anyone's guess.

i was amazed at them "getting the dents out" just hitting a hammer on the front, but then when you saw how much filler they skimmed it with I suppose it wouldnt have been noticed
I was a bit perplexed as to why they go to all the agro of having a respray, and didnt weld over the sunroof and source a new roof liner,
The sunroof looked pap. Also so much of it is staged it hurt.
