Rare Barn Find classic 70s Japanese RWD Coupe discovered will it run after 30 years? In this episode Jonny Smith heads to Darlington in County Durham, where he helps to revive a rare 1978 Japanese coupe Mitsubishi Colt Sapporo. Kevin, the owner, bought it way back in 1982 and parked it in this garage in 1993 after it required some MoT work. That was the last time it moved. There are thought to be less than 10 Sapporos left in the UK. Will it run?
