Lakeside Classics: turning a childhood dream into reality

The boys meet up with Henry Thomas of Lakeside Classics, who shares his story growing up around air-cooled 911s and how those happy childhood memories helped shape his working life as business owner of the Shropshire-based classic and GT Porsche specialist. There's plenty of chat in this episode around the 997 GT3 RS 4.0, 911 R and Carrera GT, plus Henry shares some insight into a cool new G-series restomod currently in build at Lakeside.
