Sorting parts for Triumph TR6

Many more images of our Triumph TR6 project as Mauro continues to work through sorting the stripped parts.

These images will prove to be extremely useful when rebuilding the car and make up for a great project story once the work is completely.

If you are looking at carrying out a restoration yourself photographs are so important and will be so useful.

Improving our Evante interior and throttle cable

our 1990 Evante is in the trim shop having the trim and upholstery tidied. From new, the carpets and trim area lacked the finishing touch and the current owner has asked us to spend some time seeing how we can impove the overall look of the interior.

We are also manufacturing a new boot carpet with matching piping.

Finally, the broken inner throttle cable is a temporary fix so we are manufacturing a brand new inner and outer throttle cable to meet accepting and safety standards.

Collecting our 1973 Rolls Royce Corniche

Today we visited the lovely town of Peacehaven, Brighton to collect our 1973 Rolls Royce Corniche.

The car will go through our workshops to be prepared ready for a place in our wonderful showroom.

More images will follow soon but in the meantime if you would like to know more about the car please feel free to get in touch.

If you have a classic to sell, we can offer this service for very modest commission rates. The commission will cover point of sale, liaising and front of house with all potential buyers, marketing and advertising worldwide and any warranty claims that may come out of the sale.

Access All Areas at RAF Bentwaters

Recently, Bridge Classic Cars spent the afternoon with Alan from Silverstone Auctions as we were given ‘access all areas permission’ of the RAF Bentwaters site for a very unique and special photo shoot on our 1984 Ferrari 308 GTS QV.

Guided by security we were shown some of the iconic sites normally hidden away from view at Bentwaters as we visited: The Hush House, Star Wars Building, Bomb Stores, Runways, Production Offices, Control Tower, South West Development, Stunt Areas and Back Lots, Hardened Air Craft Hangars, the ‘Victor Alert’ Area before being let loose to explore for ourselves.

Thank you so much to the Bentwaters office team and security who were all very accommodating. Thank you as well to Alan and Steven of Silverstone Auctions.

Check out some of the amazing photos we captured…
