You guys really went above and beyond to rescue this. Maximum respect for that, love your show and this is a prime example why. You collectively have the best passion and skill for restoring cars that many would not dare to touch.
Thank you for showing all this! I have been missing all this from the episodes. I know everybody don't like this but its good to see you uploaded all this material that have been cut.
I remember watching this, and thinking 'that needs a new shell or its going to take months'. I am so glad you uploaded this...it gives your show far more credence. Thinking....this could have easily been a 2 part show...and really nice of Fuzz to give credit to the bodywork guys. Come on National Geographic...we need more stuff like this or people who want to see a car re-built will turn to UA-cam.
Just watched the most recent episode 15/03/18 Lancia delta. Amazing! What a superb tribute to the owner. Emotional rollercoaster, with an amazing ending. Guys you are the best!
I think this is fantastic to see just how much work goes into these restorations. For anyone who's interested, my opinion is that the format of the broadcast programme is fine as it is, you get to see a bit of the technical stuff but you have to remember that a massive part of the show is of course, the person who the car is being fixed for and it needs to be entertaining too. Tim and Fuzz are a good presenting team and make the show appealing enough to get more series commissioned each time. Then for anyone who wants to see a bit more of the work done, these videos are very good. One last thing, could someone at National Geographic please get Fuzz some ear defenders!
No doubt the worse car Car Sausage have rebuilt, certainly one of the most beautiful. So nice to see this passion for bringing loved cars back to life. Love you Car Sausage. PS I have a wheel from a Mimi cooper, can you build it up for me, I mean my wife ? 😂
I´m restoring a Fiat X1/9. Bought it for 300£ in the UK. It looked like it needed a lot of work, but drove okay. When I got home with it and took a closer look..I didn´t sleep that night :D Lots of home made panels later, the body is fine again. Probably way more resistant to rust than when she rolled out of the factory back then. But hey, it´s been fun.
Wow I started my apprenticeship when 15 in 1970 working on Mercedes Benz so this one brings back memories. Them days mechanics were mechanics with no computers. Without a computer the so called technicians today have no clue as to the problem. Great program.
WOW, out of that ENTIRE Bodyshell, only the Transmission Tunnel and the Firewall/Bulkhead were the ONLY usable original parts!? and furthermore, the collision techs that worked on this car before Car SOS were able to save it should be BANNED from ANY type of Collision repair!
The uncut work shown on the program is 9. 32. The rest is filler recaps what's coming up after the break and Tim Shaw talking bollocks. Fuzz is the man and was a really nice bloke when i met him at practical classics restoration show.
You should have gone with a substitute shell from the start, but, having said that, looks like you did an insanely good job. Gotta respect your work, no matter how insane youse are. Hey, I've got a rusty tin shed in my backyard, do youse recon youse could make me a Bugatti Veyron out of it? I'd be most appreciative.......
I'm glad the show seems to have dropped the fiction that "we only have 3 weeks to do it". We all know these projects are way bigger than that (and in many shows you see other cars from the series in the background). It's highly commendable that you really seem to do it properly. I'd love to know how the finances work, but that's probably one bit of telly magic that might be best left unexplained. :)
And to think, Mercedes has pretty much the most available "parts" (you can still build a W123 from scratch, the whole pressed steel side sections are available)...just imagine doing something like that on any other car, having to fabricate EVERY part...this has most certainly taken a LOT longer than 3 weeks.
the show should have been in two parts , this work and workmanship needed to be shown , people needed to see this, and getting two episodes would have off set the restoration costs against production costs , a lost opportunity there to show what can be done , in this country when it needs done , i would have had the car on a measuring bench for the work , but thee guys did a great job , in the show it didnt get ten seconds , a true opportunity missed. great result though ,
So much better when the show concentrates on the rebuild by guys who really know what is involved and less of Tim being a prat and playing to the camera
I have a 250sl w113 and I’m thinking how is possible to have a car in this conditions with such a huge amount of rust . Probably this car has been kept outside in the rain and salt and snow for its entire life . There is no other explanation to me . Uk is not the best place to buy classics I guess .
guys I'm very thankful of these videos...but i really need help if someone can teach take mi to HIS GARAGE I'll work there learn i will greatly appreciate the offer.I AM IN ZIMBABWE
The thing I particularly like about the ‘Workshop uncut’ videos are the lack of ‘the other bloke’ stupidity. Why did you have to spoil it? A real shame.
Saw this episode 7th Feb 2018 on tv. What a load of tosh!!!. I'll bet the owner got his wife to contact SOS for this restoration. It must have taken 3 months to rebuild this car and if you believe the owner's mate suggested storing the car in his lock up instead of the owner's lock up you'll believe the moon is made of cheese.
If I remember the boys weren't allowed to touch the car when they went to inspect the car and the owner was a car dealer... always felt they were set up... the owner was had over, so he had Car SOS over. only my opinion.
great program but in this case i think the owners knew how bad it was. thats why they had all the story he watched it on cctv and they was not to look under bonnet under car could not touch it open doors. the guy was a garage owner mechanic and car sales man for decades and his friend was a mechanic they all knew it was a set up in the end he wasn't that surprised at all . he could of had it restored by some one else and paid. but this way got it for free me thinks,.. but maybe wrong
Je salue tous le monde avec tout le respect que vous doient,je suis sénégalais vivant au Sénégal je voudrais m'adresser aux deux génies extraordinaire qui me font rêver,je suis handicapé âgée de 57 ans et avec l'âge mes déplacements devient trop difficile et que je voyage souvent je vous prie de me faire une surprise ce sera le plus grand rêve de vie d'avoir une moto trois roues pour mes courses svp c'est un rêve pour prenez compte de ce message svp dieu vous gardent merci d'avance
Outstanding work ... but it's just a boring Mercedes. Hope its worth it after done. I guess even if it drives like a boring Mercedes it is a great demonstration of your abilities
No. I prefer the involvement of Italian cars and have always found any Mercedes I've driven like driving a surprisingly mechanically noisy appliance. I guess I just don't get them. Glad some do
Fuzz lives in in the bishops castle, craven arms area in Shropshire, he is truly in love with himself, hates it when he is not the centre of attention.👎
I suppose it only took three short weeks. What a load of bollocks the show is. Ive restored classic cars most of my working life. Who the hell do thay think thay are trying to fool.
I am 100% addicted to your show. Watching the work and craftsmanship that your crew puts out is nothing short of inspirational.

Absolute respect Fuzz and the boys.......as a panel beater myself I no what's gone into this......top job.
Tim an Fuzz it's great to see you guys in action again
Just watched the most recent episode 15/03/18 Lancia delta. Amazing! What a superb tribute to the owner. Emotional rollercoaster, with an amazing ending. Guys you are the best!
I have a whole new respect for your show. That was above and beyond.
This show is the new WHEELER DEALERS, truly great show with two great presenters.
Marfran Dema
exept wheeler dealers recoup their costs by selling it, this bag of shit show just helps rich pricks with a stored car
Outstanding work guys! You just built a new Merc 230SL from rusty bits and bobs. Awesome.
Edd China would be a great addition to the team

Feck me! Well done Fuzz, baby! That episode looks like it should be a two parter! Can't wait to see it. Nice one...
wow . its just amazing how much time effort and money has gone in to that car . well done to ALL involved . RESPECT
Honestly gents that was epic. Just watched it and you guys cannot do yourselves justice in just 1 episode.
Well done.
Alex Mckie You must be so naive to think that was done in one episode. no way a big job like that can be done in the time thay say.
Allan Armstrong We're about to start filming a new series.
How about you come down and see how we do it?
To-Ta Classics Ltd
Fuzz 😉
Reminds me of Triggers Broom.. its amazing the amount of craftsmanship that's gone into it
Wow! That is just incredible. Makes my rotten Lancia Fulvia look like a beauty! That is one rum motor. Well done chaps.
No doubt the worse car Car Sausage have rebuilt, certainly one of the most beautiful.
So nice to see this passion for bringing loved cars back to life. Love you Car Sausage.
PS
I have a wheel from a Mimi cooper, can you build it up for me, I mean my wife ? 😂

The show doesn’t show enough of this work being done or the people behind it.
I love the jaunty tilt of fuzz’s bonnet, he must have a lot of grannies in his entourage.
Can't add anything to what has already been said, astounding workmanship 10/5 !
Thanks guys, best car show on tv, keep up the great work and making me laugh every episode 😀
Awesome work
Best car show on TV amazing restorations that merc was scrap
Amazing work you guys, I love your show.
Every car repair show earns money, and this one is not an exclusion.
So basically they built around a piece of metal and called it a restoration but really they built a new car in 3 times the work...beautiful though
If you have to do such an extensive chop and weld effort is it still the same car?
WOW, out of that ENTIRE Bodyshell, only the Transmission Tunnel and the Firewall/Bulkhead were the ONLY usable original parts!? and furthermore, the collision techs that worked on this car before Car SOS were able to save it should be BANNED from ANY type of Collision repair!
Impressive stuff!
I want to see the entire episode. Where can I find it? Thank you.
Just rewatched this and I bet you his mechanic mate Lee did them patch repairs, he doesn't seem shocked at all to see it stripped down like that 😂
this give,s a whole new meaning to cut and shut
how about posting a video with the sound levels properly adjusted?

Beste,
Voor wat zijn er geen tijdelijke verstervingen aan gebracht tussen de deuren
I whant to be in contact with you about my 40 jears old mercedes 280 sl cabrio 1979
Trigger's Broom LOL!
Full episodes????
I need to watch the episode. Holy cows.
combien d'heure de travail ?
Why not use a donor body?
I hope after all that refabrication it was properly redipped and rustproofed...
And to think, Mercedes has pretty much the most available "parts" (you can still build a W123 from scratch, the whole pressed steel side sections are available)...just imagine doing something like that on any other car, having to fabricate EVERY part...this has most certainly taken a LOT longer than 3 weeks.
Took 3 months
I think a car like that is worth saving, money is the reason so many classic s get scrapped
i always am sceptical when they do it in 3 weeks. this proves my theory and doubt.
the show should have been in two parts , this work and workmanship needed to be shown , people needed to see this, and getting two episodes would have off set the restoration costs against production costs , a lost opportunity there to show what can be done , in this country when it needs done , i would have had the car on a measuring bench for the work , but thee guys did a great job , in the show it didnt get ten seconds , a true opportunity missed.
great result though ,
Why didn’t they just bought a shell in better shape? I remember they doing that before with another car.
TRIGGERS BROOM
this series beats the shit out of, goblin works garage .
All I want to know is what is the cost.
Thirteen hundred hours at a hundred quid an hour before you buy any parts......
This was probably one of the cars destroyed in the movie Intersection..
U boyz could do with the show buying you a plasma tourch
So much better when the show concentrates on the rebuild by guys who really know what is involved and less of Tim being a prat and playing to the camera
jeez...you guys ever heard of T-cut???...most of that would've buffed out.... :D
Mantap
I hope you make more shows but keep the format the same. It never works well when things start changing...
I have a 250sl w113 and I’m thinking how is possible to have a car in this conditions with such a huge amount of rust . Probably this car has been kept outside in the rain and salt and snow for its entire life . There is no other explanation to me . Uk is not the best place to buy classics I guess .
Car dealer gets Mercedes restored for nowt . Best rip off yet mate . Have you stopped laughing yet nice one
This is not renovation .It is car manufacture. You have to ask what's the point if so little of the original is left.
How to build a car out of replacement parts.
At what point dos it just become a newly built car? This does not look like an restoration to me ;)
you guys are brave or MAD ?? !!
Insane amount of work. Great skills but the reality is that you should have walked away from this one.
guys I'm very thankful of these videos...but i really need help if someone can teach take mi to HIS GARAGE I'll work there learn i will greatly appreciate the offer.I AM IN ZIMBABWE
The thing I particularly like about the ‘Workshop uncut’ videos are the lack of ‘the other bloke’ stupidity. Why did you have to spoil it? A real shame.
Хорошее дело)
They literary build a new old car :)
WHY ?
Who pays for the restoration on these cars it had to have taken months
Saw this episode 7th Feb 2018 on tv. What a load of tosh!!!. I'll bet the owner got his wife to contact SOS for this restoration. It must have taken 3 months to rebuild this car and if you believe the owner's mate suggested storing the car in his lock up instead of the owner's lock up you'll believe the moon is made of cheese.
What makes a car still the same car. This pile of rust obviously needed lots of new parts from the chassis upwards.
But it ends up with your feelings - the target.
If I remember the boys weren't allowed to touch the car when they went to inspect the car and the owner was a car dealer... always felt they were set up... the owner was had over, so he had Car SOS over. only my opinion.
IF they touched the car then it would fold over
Two words: CELETTE BENCH.
Who pays the bills for all the work and parts cannot been cheep
Very very nice people :)
great program but in this case i think the owners knew how bad it was. thats why they had all the story he watched it on cctv and they was not to look under bonnet under car could not touch it open doors. the guy was a garage owner mechanic and car sales man for decades and his friend was a mechanic they all knew it was a set up in the end he wasn't that surprised at all . he could of had it restored by some one else and paid. but this way got it for free me thinks,.. but maybe wrong
but why!
Great video - terrible background music!
The words " not worth it" loom in the back of your head.....
That would have given me a breakdown
Je salue tous le monde avec tout le respect que vous doient,je suis sénégalais vivant au Sénégal je voudrais m'adresser aux deux génies extraordinaire qui me font rêver,je suis handicapé âgée de 57 ans et avec l'âge mes déplacements devient trop difficile et que je voyage souvent je vous prie de me faire une surprise ce sera le plus grand rêve de vie d'avoir une moto trois roues pour mes courses svp c'est un rêve pour prenez compte de ce message svp dieu vous gardent merci d'avance
Outstanding work ... but it's just a boring Mercedes. Hope its worth it after done. I guess even if it drives like a boring Mercedes it is a great demonstration of your abilities
You're joking right?
No. I prefer the involvement of Italian cars and have always found any Mercedes I've driven like driving a surprisingly mechanically noisy appliance. I guess I just don't get them. Glad some do
PSk I own 4 of them so thats why I get them, not as involving as a BMW (own 4 of them as well) but they are basically effortless power.
These SL's particularly are wonderful cruisers, it seems. I hope I will be lucky enough to drive one some day..
What an absolute joke! Like the owners never knew about the condition of the pagoda lol!!! Nice resto but was never deserved
Fuzz lives in in the bishops castle, craven arms area in Shropshire, he is truly in love with himself, hates it when he is not the centre of attention.👎
What a piece of shit, cost of parts alone would make it prohibited
dirty and unhealthy work ,guy that work in this trade uasually have short lives
This show is just another piece of crap which targets the feelings of yours. It covers a lot of real metal work and other things. But dont be fooled.
I suppose it only took three short weeks. What a load of bollocks the show is. Ive restored classic cars most of my working life. Who the hell do thay think thay are trying to fool.
If you watch it they took 3 months for the welding
Took months.
