This Thursday, Yesterday Channel takes viewers on a trip down memory lane with “Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics.” The episode, titled “Fastback/Norton,” revisits the team’s early days, back in 2021 when their restoration adventures began. It’s a double dose of automotive archaeology, complete with the usual mix of rust, busted parts, and head-scratching mechanical puzzles.
First up is a 1972 VW Fastback, a vehicle that apparently taught the team a three-year-long lesson in buyer beware. What exactly went wrong with this seemingly sleek classic? The episode will likely reveal the hidden headaches and unexpected costs that can plague even the most experienced restorers.
Next, the Mathewsons turn their attention to a 40-year-old police motorcycle. As any fan of the show knows, these guys have a soft spot for two-wheeled relics, but this one, like many of their acquisitions, seems to be another non-runner. Can they coax it back to life, or will it become another expensive paperweight?
Tune in to Yesterday Channel this Thursday, 24 April at 8:00 PM to see how the team handles these blast-from-the-past projects.
