After watching the series including a car is reborn on the Discovery Channel and taping it for my personal use. I had to own an original version on CD. In respect of this classic car, Mark Evans was able to let entusiats feel part of the rebuild of a banger to a minter. With plenty of serious parts all nicely complimented with his dry sense of humour to make an excellent 3 or so hours worth of viewing. The video covered all aspects from collecting, stripping and rebuilding of the car. Plenty of emphasis on body repairs including lead work through to painting and colour sanding and buffing of a fantastic car. Well done and all down to one lucky guy (Mark) for sharing the experience of the E Type Jaguar. Brilliant. Come on Mark find another classic car to keep us all entertained.
i like all the mark evans series -a car is reborn/born and the plane ,helicoptor builds.but for me this is the best one. you get of all the details of a rebuild of a classic car,but also one of the people who designed the car in the first place comes back to appraise marks work and drive the restored car.these programs come back as repeats but i wanted this particular one as a dvd.
This is a made for TV program and was on discovery channel a few years ago. Mark the host used to be a Vet and some how managed to get into motoring and engineering. It starts off with Mark looking for a old Jag to restore and what a shed it is! Mark has a unique sense of humor and is evident straight away, his wacky style and lack of knowledge is funny but he shows you how to restore the car from start to finish. Little hints and tips for the viewers makes it more interesting, in the sense that if you don't know anything about cars he makes it understandable. Well woth a watch for anyone even if you are not restoring a car. Mark also has in the "is born" series A plane is born, A car is re-born, A helicopter is born, A Kit car is born and ofcorse this one a Jaguar is born.
