Once they find a car that catches their attention, the team provides a full inspection to determine its worth. They discuss the car's make, model, and rarity, as well as the extent of the damage and the amount of work required to restore it to roadworthy condition.

The team then sets out to restore the car, working around the clock, replacing broken or missing parts, sanding and polishing the bodywork, and repainting the car to bring it back to its original color. As the team works on the car, they share their expertise and passion for classic cars, discussing the history of the car and what makes it such a special find.

One of the show's highlights is watching the team's interior designer work on the cars' interiors, transforming old and damaged seats, carpets, and dashboards into beautiful works of art that evoke the car's original charm and style. The skilled detailer then works on the car's bodywork, bringing out every incredible detail and restoring its shine.

The electrical expert works on the wiring and electronics necessary to get the car up and running, and finally, the team's lead mechanic ensures that each car is safe and roadworthy, taking it on a test drive to see how it runs once more.

Throughout the series, the team faces a variety of challenges and setbacks, from difficult repairs to unexpected surprises hidden under layers of paint and rust. However, their expert knowledge and passion for classic cars always see them through, and each episode ends with the team reveling in the beauty of their latest restoration project.
