Earlier this year, we saved a legendary straight-six engine from a scrapyard. We paid one pound for it. And it was in BAD shape.
We literally forklifted it out of a hedge, transported it to Jaguar specialist Tom Lenthall’s, and stripped it down to see just how bad things were after years sitting outside in the elements.
By the end of today’s video, the engine will be rebuilt, and totally transformed.
