UKTV Orders CLASSIC CAR HUNTERS for Yesterday

Classic Car Hunters (w/t) has been ordered by UKTV for their factual channel Yesterday and their free streaming service UKTV Play. The Wiser Films series follows mechanic Sheldon Nichols as he works with bodywork expert Peter Harriott to meet a client’s needs and budget when searching for and repairing a vehicle. The two will make any necessary updates to the exterior and ensure it meets current standards. The team plans to deliver the client’s ideal classic while also turning a profit, if possible.
