Another car show from the UK.
A friend in the UK mentioned the show, plus another by the same guys.
This episode gets a 1930's Wolseley Hornet finished and onto the Brooklands race track.

Last time I was at Brooklands was for a Thrust SSC gathering ThrustSSC - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThrustSSC#Details)
The above mentioned friend & I climbed up the banked circuit in the dark after the meeting, it's surprising how steep it is.
There is a big section of the track missing from when aircraft were built there during the second World war.
Urban sprawl means that just over the other side of the banked circuit are now back gardens of houses !
