    So I bought one of my dream cars a 1991 Range Rover Classic and over the next 8 weeks I'm going to be restoring this 30 year old classic into a completely new car. Follow along and subscribe so you don't miss any of the weekly episodes on Sundays @ 6pm.
    We are officially half way through the build! In this fourth Episode we are finally painting the underside + wheel arches of the RRC. Throw in some laughs and a new exhaust system arrival and we've got Episode 4. Enjoy the ride!
    Steve.

    Just wanted to say great job. You’re creating a masterpiece of a series, for a masterpiece of car and it’s literally the first video I look for on Monday morning. Great to see the progress as we get to the business end of the build now.
    I’ve been watching with my Dad as about 6 weeks ago I too, just like you purchased an 1988 RRC with a view to creating my ideal car. This episode was particularly good viewing for me and we are also at the point of putting on the new shocks, springs, breaks etc… Your video has been a great benchmark to ensure we’re on the right tracks. Keep it up and can’t wait to see your finished product. I’m sure it will bring many years of enjoyment.

    Just found your channel and I'm enjoying seeing another iconic car being given the love it deserves. I've been a fan of Range Rovers for years so much so I have two of my own but P38's not classics. Are you still planning to paint the rear quarter finishers in body colour, only asking as you will lose the floating roof effect that has been a design constant on all range rovers from the classics like yours right up to present day. Either way you and the guys are doing a great job.
