    #8 - Seating Arrangements

    S1:E8

    Mark strips down his seats, door panels and centre console and takes their bare bones to the seat surgeons, Yvonne, Sandra and Ellen for re-covering in luxurious red leather. Mark fits the quarter lights and winding windows to the doors - an easy job turns into a nightmare. It only gets worse when he tries to fit the new windscreen. Then it's on to the hood frame and the new mohair hood amazingly fitting uses the same principles as a face lift.

But there's a problem with the rest of the exhaust. After some head scratching a solution is found. A quick tip on how to make your own gaskets is followed by the complete rebuild of the fuel pump. Mark converts it to electronic operation. Three hours are wasted when Mark accidentally trashes the gleaming radiator that he has just finished refurbishing.
