I agree with the above, I watched the program earlier, and it struck me that it was all set up, if you were going to flip the car you wouldn't bother with the hydro dipping, graphics, uprated rad and intercooler, or standalone management.

I do like the old ones where ed is filling dents or replacing trim here and there. My fav is the Morgan where ed had to replace the whole chassis.

The best ones are where ed refurbs the mechanics of the car as you can learn something instead of just seeing how they hydrodip alloys.

Wasn't a set up at all. Just a shame as some have said that no more fettling and tuning was done.

I liked the little BMW Isetta they did today, think they are so much more entertaining than Gas Monkey.

Gas Monkey rebuilt a smashed F40.

was looking at TVR's but we think the ZS's are bad, TVR's sound 10 x worse.

That chassis was well rotted away.

There is someone up in the Lake District that sells accident C and D write offs, thought it was a cheap way to get a newish one.
