Thornton-le-Dale: a North York Moors village guide

Bangers & Cash

Restoring Classics series 1, episode 3: a Francis Barnett Plover and an MG Metro

An independent guide from the village. Not connected to Mathewsons or the programme. For entries, bidding and the catalogue, go to mathewsons.co.uk.

Restoring Classics series 1, episode 3 was first shown on Yesterday on 4 August 2022. Two vehicles bought at Mathewsons auctions go into the workshop this time: a Francis Barnett Plover motorcycle and an MG Metro. As with every episode of the programme, the aim is to restore them and take them back to sale.
