CraigHew Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Just tripped over this new series on Youtube today. Ant Anstead building his own "special" basically a replica 1930s Alfa Romeo 158 Grand Prix race car. This isn't like a Wheeler Dealers restoration, he's starting with a donor MG chassis and making it up from there. In fact it's not at all like Wheeler Dealers at all. He also creates a fibreglass body from his own mold, explaining the gel-coat and fibreglassing techniques as he goes. To date there are 5, 30-minute episodes uploaded with more to come over the coming weeks. Here's a link to episode 1 3 Quote
SootySport Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Been watching this as well. He seems a bit hacked off with his injured arm in a sling but still getting things done. Liked the bit when he told his wife it’s a single seater. Quote
TableLeg Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Love it, thanks for the link Watched all up to current the one. ☺️ Quote
Kevin Pullen Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Quite enjoying it so far anything else worth watching for someone having to “take it easy for a while” Quote
Quinten Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Thanks for this, really enjoyed this so far. Quote
XTR2Turbo Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Enjoying but am I the only one who thinks a shame to be hacking apart a good fairlybrare chassis vs building from scratch. Quote
