His barn garage with the saloon on stands

About me

I have loved old cars since my father stood me on an oil drum to reach the bench. My saloon is older than I am, and it spent twenty years in a barn before I got it. I am rebuilding the engine one job at a time and filming each one.

Every video is a single job, and I say at the start which tools it needs, because the first thing people ask me is what to buy. Most jobs use the same handful, so a short list goes a long way. I measure everything and write it in a logbook, and I make my mistakes on camera.

I sell a guide for each job, with the torque figures, the steps and the tools listed at the top, plus a logbook sheet and two video courses. I do not sell tools or parts, and I do not take on rebuilds for other people. I show you how to do your own.
