- Restoring A 1970's American Chopper | Uncle Bunt Motorbike | Find It, Fix It, Drive It | EP 1 | Motorbike Restoration | Chopper Bike Restoration
In this week’s episode, vintage vehicle restorers Henry Cole and Sam Lovegrove are on the trail of a slice of 1970s two wheel Americana. Henry believes the 70s chopper is the next big thing and he’s tracked down a rare British version of the Easy Rider dream… an Uncle Bunt, designed by maverick 1970s British chop builder John Reed. It’s been lying unloved and unwanted in a shed in Preston, but Henry plans an epic, full bling chopper makeover for the Bunt… taking it to one of the biggest classic car and bike shows in the country

These guys must have several TV Shows in Great Britain OH and I enjoy each of them!!!
The Bike is wonderful nice job you definitely delivered on your vision 😊🎉❤
Jo Brand is as funny as me cutting off my own leg and beating myself with the soggy end!
Nasty comment. No need for it. She did a great commentary. Get a life.
You still angry that your girlfriend left you for another woman? Kind of sad that you cant move on without disparaging other women mate.
Beautiful lads,just shows you what passion can do.
Awesome 👌, the best quality bike...EASYRIDER
Any that genius milliyard had a hand in was a shoe in, let alone the guys who painted it and built the forks and tank etc ., good job lads
Amazing bike WOW love it she's a timeless one ❤
I would've done different handlebars but it's beautiful
Yes..strait bars and a solo seat..with SPRINGS..
@@badlyniceness2315 Yup..make it more ridable..least they have a small drum brake up front
Bollocks
love it.Nice to watch them fix an old chopper. There is an old time thought that allows a chopper to be repaired and riding.
Chopper came out beutiful.
Awesome bike ✌️
Brilliant
All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
Love it send to America 🇺🇸
I think he chose Jo Brand because she knows as much about mechanics as he does.
Stunning Bike. Great show.
Nice work! A little judiciously applied painter's tape might have proved useful for lowering blood pressures when you dropped in the mill.😆😁
beautiful job well done ,best wishes from australia
I built a Triumph Chopper back in the late seventies and got it on the road in 1980. I was 23 years old! It had an AEE frame with 12 inch over AEE springers from California sourced by Leon Wallace Customs of Wandsworth, London. It was long, low and skinny also painted in a Candy Apple Fire Red! I was powered by a 1972 Triumph TR6 650 engine which had been built by Dresda Autos who were literally next door. I bought the lump from a bloke who needed to sell it because he was going back home to New Zealand. Unlike the Bunt frame, it had a separate oil tank where as the Bunt frame has the oil in frame set up which was how Triumph were manufacturing the frames for their road bikes back then. I couldn't live with it for long and swapped it for a Moto Guzzi 750S3 which whilst being a much better bike, never pulled the crumpet like the chopper did! Oh, just a tip, it's easier to fit the frame around the engine than to lift the engine into the frame...
Allen Millyard= one of the best. !
Forget bunt..(no offense) ..the engine has been worked by Millard…probably gained 50 horses..maybe eighty!
Spellchecked..Forgive me ,Sir Millyard
Awesome build,love it🤙I see your both wearing the new slimline piss pot helmets, do they feel better and safer to wear?
Congratulations guys
Should have went for medium ape hangers .....
Hey. You took that matchless g50 sign down like it was rubbish and you didnt even comment about it. Now i wont sleep tonight.
Where did you find the VOICE!
Jo Brand !! I love Jo Brand!
The chopper should have won.
At firstly I did not like his job but this did it. I almost 😢 well done
👍😎✌
Jo Brand, is Russell Brands dad, innit. Anyway, great work boys.
Just as when you think Henry Cole has reached rock bottom in TV production he goes and better's it. FFS
Agree. The narration is cringe
I'd like to know how much that build cost, not that it matters really, it looks good even though I can't stand choppers or easy rider.
However, as with any over the top creation, it's too good to use. When they picked it up, as sorry as it looked, it was a useable bike, well as usable as choppers are, but now it's a show bike that's only ever going to collect dust rather than miles. Which given the engine is a Millyard worked lump seems a complete waste.
Mike Brewer on stage too🙃
First?
Who is the old lady reading stuff out ? She seems bored and clearly has no idea what she is reading .. why not get Henry or another professional to do it ..
I bet that guy was well chuffed selling that petrol can worth a grand for hundred quid
Is there not a more mature voice..i can only take so much
It hurts my tailbone to watch.
Love jo brand on anything… but this. Couldn’t watch past the first 10 minutes. Talk about miscasting!
Totally agree.
Yeah, I thought it was quite funny 😅 you can really hear how not interested she is in the subject of the show.
Bollocks
You can't drive an MC, it doesn't have a steering wheel!
Can't stand Jo beand
I wanted to watch this but I can not stand Jo Bland .
You Drive a Car. You Ride a Bike. If you are Driving a bike, please get the fokk outta the way!
Got 2 mins in and that god awful womans voice just did it for me......sorry lads This episode is toast now
OW jo narrating is the wrong choice😢
