For the Love of Cars: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Automobile fanatic Philip Glenister and internationally renowned automobile designer Ant Anstead are on a mission - to scour the barns and lock ups of Britain for wrecked treasures to bring to life.

These guys cruise for the classics. Meet self-described petrol-sexual motorhead Richard Rawlings and mechanical prodigy Aaron Kaufmann as they search far-flung corners of the country for forgotten and derelict classic cars to restore at their Gas Monkey Garage. Heaps of rust are transformed into gleaming road warriors and sold to the top bidder.
