Managing Director – Bridge Classic Cars

We are often asked whether we only do full concours restorations and the answer is…absolutely not.

In a nutshell, we can do anything you wish on your classic and vintage vehicle!

This is certainly something we have the skills and knowledge to be able to do but not everyone who owns a classic car wants or feels the necessity to have a classic in concours condition. In fact the majority of us would prefer to have a classic that can be enjoyed all year round.

We offer our services, large or small, in: restoration, engine rebuilding, service and repairs, paintwork and as Mrs H from Belstead village recently found out, we can help her with her interior, trim and upholstery enquiry too.

The driver’s seat was beginning to lose it’s shape and the back had started to collapse.

Our first task was to remove the seat in question and assess what work needed to be carried out.

A simple task but a task that will make driving her beloved car much more enjoyable for Mrs H. A new seat cushion was required.

24hrs later the seat has been repaired with new cushioning and webbing and it’s now back on the road.
