Back to EpisodesMike Brewer from TV Wheeler Dealers: My Dad built custom cars, and even modified his diesel Ford S-Max S7 E3 Recorded at NEC Classic Car Show
Description
It was a real pleasure to sit down with the legend that is Mike Brewer at the NEC Classic Car Show. We recorded this live, in front of lots of people, so please excuse the blip in sound quality - we've done the best with what we had.
Things start off with a real 'one off' hat flying out the car and back in again earliest car memory, before we hear about the custom cars his Dad built, including the Ford Pop called 'Pinball Wizard' which has been replicated a number of times in tribute.
In later life Mike recounts the tale of sourcing a sensible car for his Dad to drive his Mum around in. He delivers a Ford S-Max, but his Dad isn't impressed.
However, it only takes a few miles and he's smitten, a few months later he's modified it... lowered on split rim wheels, carbon bonnet and mirrors! He just can't stop it!!
We hope you enjoy this episode, and please do take a moment to look up Mikes TV program Born Dealer which we reference a number of times whilst chatting.
