Managing Director – Bridge Classic Cars

With the challenges we will inevitably face later in this project, due to the rarity of the car and it’s parts, we have now discovered an unexpected hole in the fuel tank.

If a new/good second hand tank can not be sourced we will need to look at the options of stripping the existing tank back to bare metal, repair the damage before re-sealing internally and re-painting.

It is not a job that is impossible to complete, intact we have had to repair and re-seal various tanks in the past so it is not too daunting a task but like a lot of jobs when restoring a classic car, it is one that was not expected.
