S2 E2 Dolemite

本集简介

Sheldon and Peter face one of their biggest jobs to date. Triumph enthusiast David already has several Brit classics but desperately wants a Dolomite Sprint to complete his collection.

David is willing to stump up the cash for his dream car, but in return he expects the best and wants a fully restored mint condition motor.Sheldon thinks he may have found a Dolomite with potential, but back at the workshop Peter quickly points out it'll need a full respray. To make matters worse, a whining, leaking differential and faulty shock absorbers mean there's a tonne of mechanical work to be done as well. The interior needs a total refurb to boot, so the chaps have their work cut out if they are to deliver a car that meets David's expectations without breaking the bank.

Ford Anglia

Sheldon and Peter are faced with a genuine motoring conundrum. Client Steve is desperate to recreate his first ever car – a Ford Anglia 105e with a 1.5-litre engine. The trouble is, Anglias only came with a 1-litre or 1.3-litre engine, meaning Sheldon must source not only a car but also a replacement power plant. Finding an entirely new engine for a 1966 Anglia is no mean feat, let alone fitting one, so Sheldon needs to tap into the Anglia community for help.

It's no picnic for Peter either. With rusting bodywork and no replacement panels available, he's forced to fabricate a new front valance from scratch.To do so, he enlists the help of long time friend and master engineer Will Trickett who arrives with an arsenal of traditional equipment, to fix a problem the old school way.

Car mechanic Sheldon Nichols and bodywork expert Peter Harriott return for a new series of the UKTV Original car restoration show.

Sheldon and Peter are back to make the motoring dreams of fellow classic car enthusiasts come true. Working to their clients' budgets, Sheldon hunts down affordable vehicles, before restoring them to their former mechanical glory, whilst bodywork expert Peter ensures they look factory fresh.

With fans of classic cars prepared to pay premium prices for the right motor, there's money to be made but only if they buy the right cars and don't discover any nasty surprises once they're back in the workshop.

Sheldon and Peter have 80 years of motoring expertise between them and back themselves to find the solution to almost any problem - and when you get to work with classic cars for a living, it's worth the risk. Margins are always tight, fixes are never straightforward but there's no better feeling than making their customers happy.
