The workshop team at Bridge Classic Cars have begun to put the engine and gearbox of the 1933 Austin 7 back together in preparation of it being put back into the front of the classic Austin.
With the new clutch and ring gear for the car having recently arrived at the restoration workshop, our technician Tom began by cleaning up the backsides of both the engine and gearbox as they were easily accessible at this time. Then, the ring gear and clutch were put onto the engine making notes to adjust the clutch forks out to just the right point for the customers’ wishes.
Then, the gearbox could be bolted up to the back of the engine before the whole assembly was dropped in place to test fit and double-check fitment and placement.
With this crucial stage complete, the team will reconnect all the various systems before the car is road-tested before being delivered back to the owner.
