The Art of Restoration: Mark Purnell's Austin 7 Special Story

It's me, Mark Stone, and today's episode is unique as I have the pleasure of interviewing my Facebook friend Mark Purnell. Mark is a true car enthusiast and has an incredible passion for classic cars. In particular, he has built a stunning Austin 7 Special. This car is an actual work of art, and I couldn't wait to hear more about the building process and its inspiration. Mark's knowledge and expertise in the field are truly impressive, and I know you'll enjoy listening to our conversation.
