Paul Brackley (Technical Advisor) and Daniel Allum (Executive Producer) both worked on Wheeler Dealers during the Attaboy days. Please don't bash Mike Brewer (FYI, I was firmly on Edd's side when he left WD). Things went downhill when Discovery became the producers and you can't blame Mike for that as he's just the presenter.

But Mike just wanted the show to go on, no matter what.

If you were planning to do a full restoration on one of these or any car that you don’t already own then it’s nearly always cheaper to find a better example that may be quite a bit more expensive as that will work out much cheaper in the end. It’s also entirely possible that it’s cheaper to just buy a nicely restored example rather than do it yourself..

I just was directed by algorithms to this channel and I'm stoked. Just in the first few minutes I am hooked. Now for a query that surely will be answered once I return from this pause to comment and wonder about a 'neutral/park' safety switch. When you try for the first time to start a car that has been sitting that you know nothing about and it's got a column shifter, just work that shifter a bit, maybe it isn't properly set in park. ...and now back to the two fellas as they discuss their options with a dead starter or...(?) Okay, as soon as the deal is made (I have yet to get to know these blokes by name) the man that stayed outside has found a wire that is errant. Good detective work. So my theory was not the case. ...again, back to the video.
