Jaguar E-Type Race Car Ready For Paint

The time has come for us to wave goodbye to the white primer finish we have seen for so long on our 1967 Jaguar E-Type Race Car. Next week we will be putting our body shell through the paint shop ready for the new finish that we have been trialling and testing for some time.

We can not wait to see it now and with our Classic & Sports Car & Bike Show just around the corner, we can’t wait to reveal the new colour.

Coming soon: 1974 Rolls Royce Shadow 1 and 1984 Ferrari 308GTS

Coming soon we have two fantastic classics for sale.

Firstly, we’d like to introduce you to our 1974 Rolls Royce Shadow I. Covering just 63,000 from new the car has had 1 previous owner. Although the log book does read 2, the car was originally registered to the company Director before he put the vehicle in his own name. The car has one final duty of taking a family member to her wedding and then she’s be in our possession ready for resale. This truly is a stunning example and we can’t wait to have our Shadow I available to see in our showroom.

Next we have our 1984 Ferrari 308 GTS QV in Argento Silver.

Paris Motor Show,  1982, Ferrari launched the iconic Ferrari 308 quattrovalvole, literally meaning “four valves” in Italian. This upgrade was developed in both the GTB and GTS form. This change pushed the car up to 240 bhp, restoring some of the performance lost to the emission control equipment.

The 308 GTS quattrovalvole model could be recognised by the addition of a slim louvred panel in the front lid to aid radiator exhaust air exit, power operated mirrors carrying a small enamel Ferrari badge, a re-designed radiator grille with rectangular driving lights on each side, and rectangular (in place of round) side repeaters.

The interior received some minor updates, such as a satin black three spoke steering wheel with triangular centre; cloth seat centres became available as an option to the standard full leather. Available options included metallic paint, a deep front spoiler, air conditioning, wider wheels, 16-inch Speedline wheels with Pirelli P7 tyres, and a satin black roof aerofoil (standard on Japanese market models).

Our Ferrari 308 GTS is available now. Viewing by appointment only. Finance can be arranged by a third party. Office hours are Monday to Friday (Saturdays and Sundays can be arranged) 8am to 5pm. To arrange a viewing please call Craig on 01473 742038 or email info@bridgeclassiccars.co.uk
