The man rescuing America's roadside models from ruin

For anyone making road trips across the US, giant statues at the roadside are a familiar sight.

Some of the most recognisable models are now known as Muffler Men. They were made by a Californian company in the 1960s as eye-catching adverts.

But after decades of neglect, they are beginning to crumble and collapse.

One man and his friends are determined to bring them back to life.
