Inspecting our new arrival

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Having taken the long trip down the M6 from Nantwich, our newest arrival, a 1973 Reliant Scimitar is now with us at Bridge Classic Cars.

Immediately we see that the paint is in need of some TLC. Whether we look to respray it or to keep the ‘patina’ finish and just carry out a thorough detail, something will be done.

One of the exhaust brackets has also come loose but once we get her in the workshops on Monday we’ll carry out a full assessment and put a plan into place.

Andy visits Bridge Classic Cars in his new toy

It is always nice when like minded friends visit us at Bridge Classic Cars.

I have known Andy Kenward since my days at Guinness Runcorn in 1996 and we have kept in touch ever since.

Andy is a true Classic Car enthusiast and has had to his credit some beautiful cars.

Andy had a beautiful Ferrari 348 until recently and a gorgeous yellow triumph stag.

In the days of the Norwich Union Rally which became later the Aviva Classic Car rally we drove our cars from Norwich to Silverstone.

I competed in my fully restored 1938 Vauxhall 14 J Type registration COD 623 in maroon with black wings (where are you now?)

Andy’s recent visit, he brought one of his toys, this pristine Vauxhall VX220 Turbo with it lovely reg.

After the customary tour of the factory we headed off to the Levington Ship for a burger lunch. A lunch and venue I can truly recommend.

Open top, very sunny day and a very fast car. Lovely.
