Going Home

Our 1987 Volkswagen Golf GTI is heading home temporarily. After a change in circumstances for the owner of the car, they have decided to postpone restoration work for now.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming our Golf GTI back into the workshop in the future so it can be brought back to all of its former glory.

Ready For Wheels

Classic car technician Chris has been undersealing our 1986 Daimler DS420. Since making its way to us from America, our DS420 has undergone a big transformation including being painted blue instead of its original white colour.

As this mammoth vehicle has been put back together, jobs like the undersealing have kept our workshop team busy.

Our 1986 Daimler DS420 will soon have its wheels put on too. These are also looking good and will make the car look even better as it continues to move through its restoration journey.

Refurbishing Jensen Carbs

Classic car technician Scott has refurbished a set of carbs from a Jensen 541.

We have had a number of Jensen 541s in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop so the team here is very used to working on these rare and beautiful classic cars.

These carbs were refurbished for a customer and, as you can see from the photos below, Scott has done a great job in refurbishing them.

Wing Mirror Painted

Our 2013 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 has had a little bit of a makeover in the form of a painted wing mirror.

Classic car technician, Mauro removed the cover from the wing mirror before preparing it for its new coat of paint.

As you can see from the photos below, the wing mirror is looking great and, once back on the car, it makes this already beautiful car look even better.

New Parts For Our Amphicar

Now that our 1964 Amphicar 7-70 has been stripped back to bare metal for rust repair, our classic car technicians have been able to closely inspect and assess each part of this interesting vehicle.

Once many of the components had been stripped, we could see which parts need to be replaced.

We have used Gordon Imports in America to successfully source Amphicar parts previously. Shellee at Gordon’s has always been extremely helpful so we are confident that all of the parts pictured below can be sourced and replaced very soon.

In The Workshop – Honda Goldwing

Our 1977 Honda GL100 Goldwing is now back in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.

As you can see from the photos below, it is looking great and its future will soon be decided. Motorcycles like this don’t come into the workshop very often so we are very excited to see what the future holds for our stunning Goldwing.

Our Aprilia Arrives

Our 2003 Aprilia RSV 1000 Millie has recently arrived at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.

Now that it is with us, it will be inspected and assessed before the workshop team come up with a plan of action for its future.

We don’t always have many motorbikes in the workshop so it’s always exciting to see one like this arrive.
