Ant Anstead: Born Mechanic

Ant uncovers a rare 1980 Triumph Dolomite Sprint that could turn a big profit and help kick off the renovations on the farmhouse. Problem is, the car doesn't start and has rust problems, so it's a gamble. Has Ant bitten off more than he can chew?

Ant's found a 1977 VW Campervan that’s been abandoned mid-restoration. He's confident he can revive it. The exterior looks decent, but the interior needs a total rebuild, just like the farmhouse windows which Ant finds are being held up by chicken wire!

Ant discovers a collector selling a 1993 Jaguar XJS Convertible, along with another Jag buried under brambles. The first Jag has done 169,000 miles, but Ant believes it has potential for profit and hopes to salvage parts from the second car.

Ant finds a 1973 Lotus Elan that could turn a big profit, but the car doesn't run so taking it on is a huge gamble. Meanwhile, farmhouse renovations stall after complaints to the council. Are storm clouds gathering over Ant's double restoration projects?

Ant finds a rare 1980 Alfasud that's been locked away for 35 years. It's not moved an inch in over three decades. Reawakening the engine proves problematic. Meanwhile, Ant strips the concrete render off the farmhouse to reveal a host of historic problems.

Ant discovers a 1977 MG Midget 1500, just like "Bridget the Midget," the first car he restored as a teen. With tight margins and a big rust problem, he enlists his family to help out. Meanwhile, Ant and his brother Michael demolish the old porch.

Ant’s sidekick Darren finds a 1964 Ford Thunderbird to restore. Although it runs, it needs a facelift, but Ant’s worried about pricey American parts. Meanwhile, Ant's dad and brother strike a deal for bricks with Ant’s Wheeler Dealer mate, Mike Brewer.

Ant's final car is a rare 1978 Land Rover Series 3, a dream find for a Landie fanatic like Ant. But it's another risky project as the bulkhead is riddled with rust. With a new porch to pay for, will this last roll of the dice pay off?
