Mark Evans - Wreck Rescue

[Nettles]

Did anyone else catch the first episode of the new series of Mark Evans Wreck Rescue?

The series is showing on Discovery Real-time at 10:00pm and each episode is half an hour long.

I watched the first episode on Tuesday about a 19 year old girl who’s trying to restore a 1959 MK1 Frog eye sprite and it was quite entertaining.

One of the vehicles featured in the series is a 1972 MK1 Capri, so it’s got to be worth watching.

Thought I'd post this up so all the OSF Capri nutters could watch it.

I cant stand the guy, doesnt know his arse from his elbow never mind how to build a car

Must admit he's too cheerful by half.

But I think he's made a lot of people think if he can do it so can I. This can only result in more companies supporting the classic/kit car/restoration scene. Loved the E-type they had done by southern restorations. But £85,000 thats a lot of money.

I think he does know his ass from his elbow, he's a Vet by trade!!

 

I like his programmes, his 'is Born' series were good viewing.

 

Does Pete Mate still work with him?
