1957 Mercedes 190 SL

Ady, our engine specialist, continues to strip down the engine on our 190 SL.

1968 Triumph TR5

Coming in as a part restoration is this 68′ Triumph TR5. A stalled project, this vehicle will now be taken in by us at Bridge Classic Cars for a total restoration.

Built in Coventry, Triumphed manufactured TR5’s between August 1967 and September 1968. The vehicle, along with the Herald and Spitfire was styled by Giovanni Michelotti. We’re honoured to bring another one of these beautiful little sports cars back to life.

We’re waiting on all of the parts that are currently with the vehicle to arrive, but so far we have pictured the chassis, suspension components (front hubs) and the seats.

Pete has continued work on our 1977 Ford Escort RS2000. He’s had to grind down the transmission mounting brackets. He’s also discovered a core plug leak behind the flywheel which will be a fairly straightforward fix.
