      Makes me sick, the price some of these cars are getting now. 1964 Chevrolet restro mod. $70k. I paid $325 for mine back in the early 70’s. My old Sunbeam Tiger, Trans Am’s, Camaro’s, Malibu’s, Mustangs, Corvette’s etc. are such in demand now. Crazy prices.

        I'm on the East Coast and didn't stay up late enough to catch the show. Since WD is shot in the Los Angeles area, I assume the 124 they used hadn't suffered the typical effects of dreaded European car 'tin worm'?

              I watched it. I prefer the episodes where Ant (or Edd in the days of old) does a lot of engine work. The work Ant did on the diff and driveshaft was nice to watch.
