In this episode of Stacey David's GearZ, titled "Junkyard Jag," Stacey takes on the challenge of making something special out of a car that has been left to rot in a junkyard. In this case, the car in question is a 1962 Jaguar Mk2 sedan that has seen better days. Stacey first introduces the car and explains its many issues, including a rusted-out body, a disintegrated interior, and a non-functioning engine.

First up, Stacey takes the car to his paint and body expert to assess the damage and find out if the car is even salvageable. After a thorough inspection, the expert decides that the best course of action is to strip the car down to its bare bones and start from scratch. This means that Stacey has to find all the replacement parts that will be needed to complete the restoration.

To do this, Stacey takes a trip to a nearby scrapyard, where he spends hours combing through piles of old rusted cars, searching for the parts he needs. Along the way, he gives tips and tricks for how to find the right parts and what to look for in a car that's been sitting for a long time.

With a car full of new parts, the next step is to get to work on the body and interior. Stacey takes the car to another expert, who helps him rebuild the frame and structure of the car, removing all the old rusted metal and replacing it with new, sturdy parts. Meanwhile, Stacey gets to work on the interior, using vintage fabrics and materials to recreate the look and feel of the car's original design.

Finally, it's time to turn to the engine. Stacey takes the old, non-functioning engine out of the car and replaces it with a newer, more powerful model. He shows how to properly install an engine and make sure it's running smoothly before mounting it back in the car.

Throughout the episode, Stacey works tirelessly to restore the 1962 Jaguar Mk2 to its former glory, offering tips and tricks for restoration enthusiasts along the way. His passion for cars and desire to see this project completed is infectious, making for an entertaining and informative episode that any car lover will enjoy.
