An Udder Disaster!

When you work on as many vehicles as we do here at Bridge Classic Cars, the chances are that you’re going to make a mess at some point.

The most recent messy incident involved our Director Craig, 4 litres of milk and a Ford Ranger!

Fortunately, no classic cars were harmed, but our truck needed a very good clean.

With the front seat removed, the milk-soaked carpet could be cleaned before the milk did too much damage. A special chemical was needed that helped soak up the bacteria that lead to smells to make sure that the next time Craig gets in the truck, he isn’t reminded of his unfortunate milky accident.

After a thorough clean, our Ford Ranger is back in action, completely lactose-free, and ready to get back out on the road.

Door Alterations

We love Jensens here at Bridge Classic Cars. We think they are very special cars and we have spent lots of time working on various Jensen models from Interceptors to FFs, 541, 541R, and more.

One extremely special Jensen is our 1960 Jensen 541S which has recently returned to the workshop.

While it has been with us, it had its fog and spot lights swapped over by classic car technician Ryan as well as receiving some attention from Dave too.

Dave’s focus was on the driver’s side door. The door didn’t quite align right with the body of the car when it was closed. Dave did some alteration work and was able to improve the alignment of the door so the chrome part of the frame now fits much better.

As the time approaches to once again say goodbye to our 1960 Jensen 541S, we are pleased to have been able to make improvements to this beautiful, award-winning classic car.

Welding And Stripping

Classic car technician Rob has continued his work on our 1968 MGB GT.

He first focussed on the left-hand front suspension. This was stripped ready for new bushes to be fitted before rebuilding.

The left-hand sill and wheel arch underwent some more welding before being primed and sealed, while the right-hand inner sill and arch began to be cut out for more welding to take place.

The right-hand front suspension was then removed ready to be rebuilt. Welding then began on the right-hand side rear inner sill and wheel arch area.

Rob’s work will continue on this classic car as he prepares this future competition car to be won through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions.

Remembering Ken Block

Rally driver Ken Block has sadly passed away at 55 years old following a snowmobile accident.

After beginning his rallying career in 2005, Ken won Rookie of the Year in the Rally America Championship before going on to compete in the world rally championship and winning multiple medals at the X Games.

As well as his rallying career, Ken co-founded DC Shoes and created the Gymkhana video series on YouTube which was viewed by millions of people worldwide.

Honnigan Racing, where Ken was described as ‘Head Hoonigan in Charge’ released a statement confirming the sad news.

“It’s with our deepest regrets that we can confirm that Ken Block passed away in a snowmobile accident today. Ken was a visionary, a pioneer and an icon. And most importantly, a father and husband. He will be incredibly missed”

Ken’s driving skills, passion for motorsports, and ambitious stunts will be remembered by all who knew him and everyone here at Bridge Classic Cars send our condolences to his family and friends.
