Wheeler Dealers

The Porsche 996 is one way to get the 911 experience without the price tag. It's an amazing car, but has a recurring problem that can lead to catastrophic engine failure. Ant future-proofs the car and Mike adds interior class.

It may look like the Porsche 911's ugly sibling, but the 1970 VW Fastback Type 3 has character. Mike finds one that's well-loved, but it suffers from some typical SoCal mods. Plus oil leaks, shabby interior and rust.

Mike locates a long-wheelbase '71 Chevy C10 truck. It's in great condition, but Mike feels they could maximize their profit if they can make this truck more drivable and ramp up the performance.

The Mazda RX-7 is an '80s classic loved on both sides of the Atlantic. Mike finds a highly desirable 1985 MK1 model with less-than-desirable aftermarket add-ons, suspension problems and an iffy rotary engine.

The Mercedes 300 TD was the last Mercedes made in an era of no compromise at the brand. Mike finds an example that's even slower than expected and works with Ant get the best out of the diesel engine.

Two iconic names in British motoring came together, with a British engine by Lotus, to make one of the finest British roadsters: the 2-seated convertible Jensen Healey. Mike finds the perfect model to recondition with Ant's help.
