Next Episode of Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics is
unknown.
A Bangers & Cash spin-off series that follows the journey of a vehicle purchased at a Mathewsons classic car auction, before being repaired, restored and then re-auctioned in order to try and find the vehicle a new home and loving owner. These genuine restoration projects, with varying degrees of difficulty, show how tricky it can really be to restore classic vehicles back to their former glory. Derek, Paul and Dave Mathewson are on hand to share their advice and observations on the variety of different jobs, which include an MG Montego Turbo with its engine in the boot, and a rare Lotus Elan S1 that hasn't seen a road for 47 years.
The team shock Derek when they buy one of his favourite Austin commercials and convert it to electric, the green wheels keep turning as they snap up a super-rare 50's American beach bike.
Can the team finally smell profit when they sniff out a bargain Porsche? A DIY job on a Fiat should also keep the accountant happy but will it go to plan?
Rewind the clocks to 2021 where ‘Restoring Classics' first began! The team's first purchase, a 1972 VW Fastback, gives them a three-year-long lesson in what not to buy. The second project sees them pick up a 40-year-old police bike - guilty as charged for buying yet another non-starter.
The team cannot believe their luck when a Volvo 144 rolls in with just 15,000 miles on the clock.
The team fall for a Subaru Pick-up, which has all the Mathewsons in agreement. But will it all come crashing down when picking up parts proves tricky?
A 1973 Ford Escort Mexico is the team's most expensive purchase to date. To save some cash Derek helps on their second buy - a 1968 Riley Kestrel.
Looks like something went completely wrong!
