The massive V8 engine hasn't run in years and the team troubleshoot the fuel system to find the fault and give the car back its awesome roar.Also in the workshop is a globetrotting VW Beetle which has been re-imagined as a Baja desert racer. It's been driven to the Himalayas and back, but now it can't get twenty minutes down the road without breaking down. The driver's adventurous days have come to an end, because the engine is kaput and the car lacks an internal roll cage to keep her safe as she heads offroad. Can the workshop crew get the Baja running again and build a bespoke cage for its thrill-seeking owner?
