About this episode
Are classic cars best left original — or can the right modifications make them even better?
In this episode of The Radiator Arms, James, Ant and Will debate where to draw the line between preservation and improvement.
★ This week we cover:
• Our time with the Nissan UK’s Datsun 240Z
• The end of Will’s Bora-fronted Golf, and whether quirky swaps can add value
• How subtle upgrades can transform classics without ruining their soul
• Period-correct mods, resto-mods, stance culture, and where things go too far
💬 What do you think?
★ Featuring:
• James: https://youtube.com/@JayEmmOnCars
• Ant: https://youtube.com/@sportzntouring
• Will: https://youtube.com/@WillThePlank
