Mate has a new show - Restoration Garage - about a automotive restoration shop based in Canada. If it is automotive they work on it.
One car that gets a bit of air time is their creation of a 1937 Bugatti Aerolithe.
I had read a number of articles regarding the build of this amazing machine - it is something else. I would love to see it up close in real life. Here is a link to "The Guild" which is where the show is filmed. The Guild of Automotive Restorers - Home of Restoration Garage (http://guildautorestore.com) and on that page has link about the Bugatti.

There is also another filmed in Canada called Dream Car garage which is also interesting viewing. Lots of tips on how to perform a restoration properly.

The guys in Dream Car garage are fanatical about authenticity. Ah, these components were dipped in this type of black paint, on this car there 3 types of black paint, on this one the differential was the car color and then over sprayed, there were chalk marks in this color here on the firewall behind the glovebox. The attention to detail is phenomenal.
