The Marcos 3 Liter GT has seized brakes and a non-functional clutch due to hydraulic leaks. The mechanic removes the body cover to access the master cylinders, topping them off with fluid to see if the seals recover after sitting.
A Fiat requires a fuel tank clean and new brake hoses, while an MGA needs electrical work before it is drivable again. A Westfield sits on the trailer after an Austin Healey Conclave, and a Pininfarina is being charged to revive its dead batteries.
Other projects include a supercharged VW Beetle with a period-correct Chirac unit, a Chevrolet C20 finishing its exhaust, and a BMW 2002 Ti receiving new rear panels for Euro bumpers. A rusted Jeep Scrambler gets a new tub, and a Land Rover Defender 90 is now in primer with a V8 engine.
