Not good....

Funny how all these shows including Wheeler Dealers, and so on, never have a stripped thread, broken stud, cracked casting etc. Life in a garage isn't like that. And this geezer, words fail me....

It's not perfect but Classic Car SOS on National Geographic is much better in that respect, still a bit of calafudgery going on, but they do admit to problems and show how they get over them.
