The Lost Lotus: Restoring a Race Car (2018x51)

Fecha de emisión: Nov 28, 2018

Philip Glenister and Ant Anstead restore a Lotus Elite - a classic of 1950s British motoring. Ant unearths a gem in Stoke - a unique green Elite that was the prototype model for the 100 production Elites that followed. The car was displayed at the Earls Court motor show in 1958 and first owned by jazz musician Chris Barber. Philip and Ant sink their own hard earned cash into its restoration, and plan to get it back out on the race track at the Tourist Trophy at Silverstone.
