I was a bit sad at seeing the old original type boot rack junked. (At =
least put it in the boot?). Mine=E2=80=99s in the attic until I need it =
again!

And the SUs=E2=80=99 dismissal did come as a bit of a surprise. Shiny =
new Webers of course, but =E2=80=9Cnew=E2=80=9D means the Spanish ones =
which people =E2=80=9Csay=E2=80=9D aren=E2=80=99t so good. And was there =
any surgery to permit half way decent ram pipes and/or air filters??

However, they made good money. Lucky to find a fellow who was prepared =
to pay for a couple of minutes in the limelight??

I thought the upholstery work was a bit shoddy, too; it appears to be =
difficult to get a smooth fit at the bottom of the seat backs. The guy =
who did my BN2's seats said it was one of the toughest jobs he'd had, =
and he was 83 and had been doing car upholstery since he was 13 (had to =
drop out of school to help support his family).  And it didn't have the =
'checkerboard' pattern on the side panels, which I think adds some =
character to the interior of BJ8s, IMO (probably embossed, which might =
be hard to do with leather).

But, Mike and Ant's enthusiasm for the car, beyond mere patriotism, was =
endearing.

Totally agree with the BRG with red interior.  Perfect for Santa to =

I may be late on this but just saw it last night for first time.  =
"Wheeler Dealers" on Motortrend network is one of few shows on any =

interesting as I like the repair/resto theme each episode.=20

Ant put 10k into it.  Took it to Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale and the =
car brought $71000.  It looked great and the upgrades were nice and well =
chosen.  (I did not care for the selection of the all red interior for a =
BRG car however.  Tan or maintain black would have been better IMHO). =
And to think of it, I would not have done the side exhaust either.

Anyone else seen that episode?

PS. attached is recent picture of "Baby Car" my friend for 47 years.

Am I the only one who names family vehicles?  Drivers as well as =
collectibles.
