Who parks off a rare car like that in running condition for 33 years and then stack old furniture on it and let mould grow on the inside??

I also hated that they tried to start the engine right there in the garage with stuck valves banging on the rockers.

FFS take it to a proper workshop, change the oil, lubricate the cylinder walls properly before even thinking of turning the engine over by hand first.

Then clean and flush the fuel system and the cooling system before checking to see if you have oil pressure before attempting to start it with new spark plugs and fresh fuel.

I wonder how much damage they caused to the engine in that grotty English garage. I could not finish the video, they made my head hurt.
