My Project Car Round-Up. What classics I own and why I couldn't resist rescuing 2 more.... In this long awaited episode Jonny Smith details all the vehicles he currently owns, what the plans are for them in 2024 and what jobs they need doing.
Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
This video includes a little update on his cheapest Porsche Boxster in Britain, his Dodge Charger, endless Chevrolet Impala SS lowrider project, Austin Allegro Type R, pair of Hondas and the two secret cars he's bought in the last few months. They were cheap - right car, wrong time.

It's a disease and can be as destructive as rewarding, but as Jonny said the 'right' cars and car opportunities often come at the wrong time. Resistance is futile. But seriously, 2023 was quiet for most of his projects, so 2024 there's going to be firmer plans and time lines. We welcome what you'd like to see more of, and why.

@@TheLateBrakeShow I bought a Boxster a little prior to Johnny buying his. I've had to put it up for winter due to other life factors, but am looking forward to getting it back on the road come March. Already had to do several fixes to it, know I need to do several more. Mine's also a 2002. Very much looking forward to seeing what he does with his. I'll be keeping mine as stock as possible mechanically, but going to try to do some cosmetic changes. That's the car of Johnny's I'm most personally invested in for selfish reasons! :)

Sell the taxi if you got fair offers for it and let someone else enjoy it. Use the proceeds to fix the Element and get the Boxster some new bushings, brakes and wheels and then just drive it as is with flawed outside but properly sorted chassi and stock drivetrain.

Nice to see a detailed roundup of your fleet. Really looking forward to seeing how these new projects progress :)
Hi Jonny, I’m an ex-Porsche technician, re the water ingress, first thing to check as it’s a common issue, remove the plastic cowl panels under the bonnet & you’ll see left and right the drain holes, these fill up & the water enters the car and plays havoc with the ECU’s under the seat, blow out with an air line, test and refit the cowl panel. Next is the top windscreen seal, usually ingress is from the corners. The seal dries out, try applying Vaseline to it and the seal on the front of the hood. The seals on 986’s are expensive. Then check by lifting the convertible flap halfway, the two drain holes either side as these fill up with rubbish, finally make sure the door panel waterproof seal hasn’t been damaged. Please for the love of God DO NOT EV the Impala, that would be criminal, the engine of any car is its soul!

All sensible choices and understandable buys.
That's a great collection of cars, Jonny. Well done for saving the Smart. You're so lucky to have your first car. Mine was a Mini Pickup which I rescued from a scrapyard but at the time didn't have the skills or perseverance to return it to the road.
A great and eclectic series of cars, and so much more interesting than one single exotica of the same cumulative value. Look forward to seeing the content over the coming year.
What a wonderful eclectic collection of cars, Lovely to see most of them together and look forward to you getting on working on them. Love the 2cv and Smart.
Aside from seeing all your wonderful car projects lined up, I found it an incredibly honest episode on more than one level. I, simillar to others have been watching you since Fifth Gear days and really love this channel and appreciate all the work that goes into it. So great and refreshing to hear that life won't get in the way of a cool car collection! 😎 All the best for 2024 👊
To use a favourite expression of yours Jonnie - don’t be a “flute” and spoil the Boxster by pimping or doing something silly. That is a nice honest 986. Don’t cock it up.
Hi! I have a reasonable amount of experience on Smarts, having rebuilt my own Roadster-Coupe Brabus, and regularly fixing some of the electronics issues with these cars. Happy to help you with your rescue, and to answer any questions you might have.
We need more Impala content... love it
"Frilly Vinyl Wrap" That mod made my Sunday. I bet it also adds at least 5-10 bhp
Great to have a recap of the fleet and why you have each vehicle. The Element definitely feels worth converting to EV. It’s the best thing for it.

Mainly on the basis that Jonny has previously mentioned how much it costs to run with the existing setup. Plus his general sentiment (which I agree with) that EVs are great for everyday cars and the bulk of travel, and a few miles in a fun classic is great for the weekend.
Great to see a round-up. Huge love for the Smart and 2CV. As you say, difficult to juggle so many.
Honestly this video makes me feel better about my own project cars. That said more of yours are on the road than mine and i salute you for that. Thanks for the content Jonny, fantastic as always.
I recognized the shape of the secret car right away - but I could not tell it was such a special one. Always loved those too - very good that you intend to save it and the same goes for the other new project!

Jonny, 2cv an inspired choice. My folks pulled a 1958 ripple one from a French barn in 2005. New chassis, nut and bolt resto , painted sadly Ill health meant my dad never finished it…..just the final 3% to complete it now. Great to work on and such a simple and ingenious design.
Looking good, just finding the space to put them all! You had to get that Smart, even just to add to your high mileage 2 seater collection

Thank goodness for this episode Johnny. As a lunatic who once reached 47 cars in various barns, outside 'storage' and on the road, with the help of a therapist I'm now down to 16 😂. The question that has been bugging me for some time is, how many cars can I have and get away with as 'normal'? You have answered my question, 10. I can have 10 cars and consider myself normal! Thank you Johnny, I have to reduce by 6 and I'm there. Watching you is much better than talking to my car therapist.
I've had storage issues with my project car and it is depressing - made me feel better to know you have been in the same boat! Here's to a better storage 2024 for us!
Great to see someone live the dream, you deserve it Jonny. Can't wait to see how the projects progress over the next 12 months. Best of luck! 👍
I’m too scared to do it without the help of an adult. Great one liner!
A great episode and a great collection of cars, Jonny. Unlike most comments, I say keep the taxi - it's a unique car and it would look mega on some split rims. In fact, keep them all - it's your collection, you bought them all for a reason. Just enjoy them!

Fascinating collection!

They’re winters on the front, so I’m guessing as soon as the right wheels come along/ summer, it’ll get fresh, appropriate rubber.
Johnny, you mentioned your Element has a shimmy in the drive train. It looks to be an automatic. We own a 03 Element with an automatic that had a drive train shimmy. It drove me crazy trying to find it, I replace the rear diff fluid, all 4 struts, front driveshafts, and any bushings or balljoint that had even the slightest bit of movement. It turns out it was the automatic transmission. A complete fluid change fixed it. The transmission and torque converter holds 7 litres, but when you drain it only 3.5 come out, so you do that 3 times, and replace the filter, and voila, no more shimmy. Ours has 330 thou Km on it (Canadian model), we love it, it's the most useful car we've ever owned.
Thank you for sharing them all with us in one shot, Jonny! I've never owned more than 5 at once, and not all of them were interesting. I still have a project in limbo, and many cars have come and gone in the 15 years it has been off the road. Heck, it's been off the road longer than I've known my wife! 🤣 I'm at point with that like you are with your Beetle. I don't have all the parts, and I want to just be able to push through once I get back on it. Looking forward to what 2024 has to bring to the channel!
Good evening Jonny, been a fan of yours since the old 5th gear days, you were the first TV car journo to like old weird shit like me, not just hyper cars and the latest M3, and your projects keep to that. 2023 sounded pretty tough on you buddy, look after yourself please, and thanks for all the great content, you help other people going through tough times to switch off for a moment.

Seen that as a smart straight away, get a remap and liven that motor up, did my four two and ended up more powerful than the brabus, it was epic, love another so look forward to you doing that up.
What an ace collection Mr Pervert. Each car has something unique and interesting about it. Looking forward to the updates throughout 2024. Keep up the awesome content sir!
I'm absolutely loving the "found at the bottom of a compost bin" 2CV-the patinated look is definitely the way to go. Anyone who sees it in the flesh is going to need a tetanus booster.
Don't EV swap the Impala. EV swaps in old cars should be reserved for vehicles where the engine is unreliable and soulless. Even though a Chevy 350 is ubiquitous, having a nice American V8 under the hood is still something special.
Nice round up of projects Jonny. I love your bug and your right to get parts together as much as you can before restoration. Also like the smart I worked for Mercedes when they were new. Look forward to some content on them👍👌

2 days ago I was watching Tiff review the Smart Roadster for 5th gear and surfed Autotrader to see what's available - not that I wasn't but SUBSCRIBED!
That Brabus is so you, looking forward to seeing what you do with it. Love the Element, and the Charger. And your Beetle makes a perfect 4-car fleet. Personally I'd sell all the others and try and get a bit more focus (I've lost my way a bit and am currently trying to prune 12 quirky motorbikes down to a more-manageable 4 or so). But whatever you do, keep sharing it all with us in your brilliant trademark style, it's the best channel on here.
I remember when you started it, in the defunct Street Machine and I was desperate to see you finish the Impala. I like the BRABUS Smart Coupe, but love the smart convertible too
Awesome video, and love the style of “it’s not all done, but I’m working on it… ah dam! Thought id fixed that”. Real value and enjoyment, thanks! Happy 2024!
Dodgey Honda diff - my dad had same issue on his CRV. Took it to Honda and a few gbox specialists. Always came back shortly after. Until, he found a claasic specialist who said it needs to be flushed 3 times over. Guy did it, and issue hasnt come back after thousands of miles 👍🏻. Thoroughly loved the video. We all love these cars as much as you, so get some vids up. Your subscribers will love them 😊
You seem to have filled the tiny (😉) gap between Harry’s garage and hubnut - great collection - keep it weird!
Great round up, Jonny. Love the two new acquisitions. I even think I like the wrap on the Brabus... 😯 A 2CV is one possibility for our next REVS Restore project (if we can find one), so will follow that with interest. Nice Takona hat. 👌
Love all your work Johnny, I’m pleased I guessed correctly on the new project, as a longtime follower from CarPervert days I think I missed the Chevy video one to go back and watch. Sorry to hear the single dad news hope you’re ok, as a single dad myself I share your issue with buying vehicles with not enough seats having bought an ex DHL Sprinter to convert into a camper with only one seat and having 2 boys, I’ve got extra seats and am sorting that problem. I drive my Yellow Sprinter round Taunton with added SnS stickers. Thanks for everything you do, from support in TA1 🙂
Jonny you have an eclectic collection! I have never had a Honda even an old one develop leaks that got the inside of the car wet. However I do live in a semi arid more like a desert area of the US. I am looking forward to see how you fix the various problems your cars have!

Lovely eclectic mix of cars I’ve forgotten and cars I’ve never known 👌🏻
Jonny I have a 2003 beetle, a yellow 1.9 PD tdi “Brian” Me and the wife adore him. Yours is stunning. Although Brian is not a classic beetle he puts a smile on our faces. I searched and searched for a yellow 1.9 pd, the moment I saw him on auto trader (7 am one hung over Sunday morning) I rang around people I knew who could take me the 100 miles to buy him. Air con, heated seats. I’ve been a “dubber” ever since my first mk1 golf. I left the scene then straight back into it when Brian came into my life (29/5/2022) I love the charger too, I’m 44 and grew up with Dukes of Hazard (the proper one) I still have my 1987 Annual 😁
I too find myself recently single, and now with three cars and a motorcycle. I can't help but take this video as inspiration to buy more. Keep up the great work Jonny. Love to see more on all these cars 👍
Ive got a 2015 convertible beetle in exact same colour as yours. French racing blue. Simply lovely.
Happy New Year! This is a car collection like no other!
