1967 Jaguar E-Type Light Shield Modification

Dave, one of Bridge Classic Cars’ technicians has been working on modifying the light shield surround on our 1967 Jaguar E-Type. There was previously a slight gap between the light shield and the bodywork. Dave has let in fresh metal and shaped to fill the gap perfectly. It will now go down to our Paint shop to by painted body colour.

Viper Detailing Working his Magic

Colin from Viper detailing has been up to the showroom to give a couple of our vehicles a detail. The first of which was this gorgeous Rover P5 which has been in the classic car workshop for repair work.

The second vehicle is our TVR Chimaera 500 competition car. This vehicle was won in last night’s draw by Ian Summers with ticket 2214. Colin has ensured the vehicle is looking as lovely as possible for its new owner.

1967 E-Type Choke Unit Leak

Pete has been working on our 1967 Jaguar E-Type. There was a leak coming from the choke unit. We have identified it was a failing washer that was causing the leak. Pete’s installed new copper washers to remedy the fuel leak. Top work, Pete.

1960 Jensen 541R Door Modifications

Dave has been working on our 1960 Jensen 541R restoration. He has taped up the side rear windows to test fit into the car for a trial fit.

The rear windows are fitted in place after some polishing and filing. Dave is now bolting these fixed windows in position.

Dave has had to modify the doors on our Jensen to allow the glass to move freely up and down through the door. He has had to cut out a strip of metal at the top of the door, move it back a few millimetres and then weld the metal back into the correct position.

1973 Triumph TR6 Refurbishing Components

As we near completion on our TR6 Restoration, Mauro is working hard refurbishing components to fit back into the car.

He has refurbished all of the dash buttons and switch gear which are now all ready to be installed into the new dashboard.

The steering column has been completely stripped down to access every part for refurbishing.

One of our other classic car technicians Dave has also skilfully repaired the seat brackets too. Great job Dave and Mauro!
