Introduction We discover our Amphicar sitting in a barn near Upton-upon-Severn, with nothing but a cow for company. Owner David Chapman originally bought it for spares for his other Amphicar but since there are only 10 of these strange vehicles in Britain, he jumped at Salvage Squad's offer to restore this one. But where do you start with a car that doubles as a boat? The Amphicar 770 was designed by German auto engineer Hanns Trippel for the American market – though it was based on his wartime work, making amphibious cars for the German army.

The team attempt to refit a Massey Harris 780 combine harvester, a model used by almost all the country's grain farmers in the Fifties, although there are now only 10 left. Their challenge is to restore the machine back to working order in time to bring in the last of the summer wheat. However, with its internal components almost destroyed, it's going to take a lot of work to get it running again

The team attempt to restore a Scammell Scarab - a 1950s three-wheeled lorry used for carrying cargo from goods trains to its final destination. With Britain's railways no longer operating a parcel service, this is one of the last relics of a forgotten transport system, and has been rotting in a back garden for the past 20 years. Unfortunately, a Scammell specialist condemns it to the scrapheap
