The 1974 Triumph GT6 that we recently bought has left Scotland today for its long journey to us in Suffolk. In the same garage was a yellow 1995 Lotus, which you can see photos of at the end of this post. We’re looking forward to the arrival of the Triumph soon!
Re-manufacturing the Aston boot hinge
August 25, 2021
A wobbly bolt! That’s not what you want on a boot hinge that’s expected to hold up a huge piece of the back of a car.
Not a part you’ll find easily, our Aston Martin DB2/4 boot hinge bracket is having to be re-manufactured to comfortable and securely take the size of the bolt required to hold up the boot itself.
Clinton specialises in metalwork. He works within the fabrication and body work department of our workshops and is gifted with his talents in the fabrication of intricate metalwork. He has re-produced, to original factory specification, the boot hinge that can now take the size of bolt that is required without any movement or ‘wobble’.

Jaguar SS100’s weeping front.
August 25, 2021
Last week we welcomed back this lovely 1963 Jaguar SS100. It’s a replica made by a former business, Suffolk Sports Cars, which sadly are no more. It was reported that there was a weeping coming from the front of the car. Paul set to investigating the leak and quickly diagnosed the problem, the suspension shocks were where the weeping was coming from. They’ve now been replaced and this gorgeous classic is road-ready once more.
