Blokes in sheds
We like blokes in sheds doing silly things with cars. Here’s our tribute to them…

1957 VOLKSWAGEN SAMBA
You need massive, heavy sex-parts and a fairly well-stocked bank account to restore a knackered old classic car at the best of times, but this... This is mental.
It's a 1957 Volkswagen Samba Deluxe found underwater in a Norweigan fjord in 2003 following a tip-off from the chap that put it there in 1973 (it was rolled into the water when its gearbox broke).
Morten Lunt - said mentalist - sent down a mini ROV sub, spotted it 15 meters deep, figured its woes would probably buff out, then hired a crane to pull it out.
