Anyone watching?
I must be bored as it’s real low-key budget motoring. Real bodge-jobs and makes earliest episodes of Wheeler Dealers look ultimate professionals. Two blokes, given up day jobs and turning over budget (ie scrap, as most bought from fields having stood for five years, etc) in five days.
One episode had an Alfa basically with no floor pan. Despite this they refurbed the wheels and tyres with 3rd party company, decided the car was a shed and had it crushed..... with wheels and tyres still on it  Others just have the most excruciatingly bad ‘repairs’ or improvements added.
The main spanner man is an, er, right spanner.
I did better bodges as a 17 year old with no money......
If you’re REALLY bored take a look

They could have got there money back by breaking it for parts.
I also saw one where they bought bought some secondhand bits for an mx5 I think it was including an exhaust but then when they fitted it it was miraculously a new one
