The workshop at Bridge Classic Cars noted a small noise coming from the suspension of the 1973 MGB GT V8 during its pre-delivery inspection and found a small clearance issue.
The wheel weights fitted to the new minilite wheels were interfering with a ball joint and had damaged the rubber gaiter. So, the weights were moved to the inner edge of the wheel and the ball joint was replaced.
This has given the arm and the balljoint enough clearance to spin freely without any interference.
The trim team at Bridge Classic Cars have turned their attention back to the interior of the 1968 MGC Roadster.
Brian has been renewing the wooden veneers which cover the face of the dashboard as well as the centre console. After these were all secured in place, it was the job of carefully refitting all of the trim pieces and brightwork back into place on this truly beautiful and rare MGC Roadster.
Having travelled over from South Africa in a container, our 1969 Sunbeam Rapier has been run up and driven for the first time in a long time.
The workshop at Bridge Classic Cars has begun to inspect the carburettors on the original straight-six destined to be reunited with the 1954 Bristol 405.
Our restoration technicians have been testing the carburettors are clear and all springs and rotating pieces move smoothly, as well as inspecting some of the internals before they’re completely taken apart and inspected further on the workbench.
The 1972 Chevrolet El Camino arrived back at the Bridge Classic Cars secure storage facility after having its automatic transmission repaired.
The El Camino came to use with an issue selecting any gear. So, the car was sent to a local trusted automatic gearbox specialist to be investigated and repaired for its owner.
Now with those repairs complete and the car safely back in our storage facility, it will be looked after by the storage team.
The workshop at Bridge Classic Cars has been working on the 2003 Jaguar XKR which came to use for a knocking noise from the rear.
Upon inspection, our technicians noted that the rear link rods were heavily corroded and had a substantial amount of play in them which could be contributing towards the report knocking noise. These were changed by the workshop technicians to retest and see if it improved the knocking noise.
This beautiful 1990 Porsche 944 Turbo has just arrived at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop in Suffolk.
