Published: February 22, 2026

Video Description

Abandoned for Decades - We Dig out Hedge Find Classic Cars (Land Rover, Lancia, Escort...). In this not-quite barn find episode Jonny Smith is called to a farm in Suffolk where he unearths more than expected - a handful of cars in hedges and undergrowth, several of which very rare indeed. One 1960s Lancia hopes to be restored, one Matra Rancho that yields loads of parts for his body swapped project car and the others for sale imminently. Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
